Well, this stretch of rainy and cold weather isn’t fit for much outside, except perhaps capturing the raindrops on the spring garden. While I’m not ready, just yet anyway, to cheat physics by stacking or reversing lenses, my shots have improved now that I’m using a Canon Remote Controller RC-1 to eliminate mirror slap and my own wavering when clicking the shoot button on my DSLR. The helpful salesman at Henry’s Cameras says that even your own heartbeat can be enough to blur a macro photo.
I especially like how the raindrop on the Lady’s Mantle leaf magnifies the little leaf hairs underneath. Click on the thumbnails to see a larger pic.
