Like I said in my previous post, I am currently experimenting with Macro photography in monochrome. It rained overnight so I took the opportunity to go out this morning and find these shots of water on leaves.
Shooting leaves always confuses the camera's light meter, since the green tone tricks it to think it should raise the exposure. I had to compensate for the exposure to actually get the water to show up. Some of the shots are not very sharp because there is a light breeze out today, and the leaves were moving. I couldn't set the the shutter speed fast enough to freeze them in action. Also, at the macro scale, tiny movements matter more, even at f8, which is what the aperture was set to.
