Pic O' The Week #1

Wow, it's a veritable posting frenzy! Don't worry, I'm not ambitious enough to even attempt something like the picture-a-day project, but I am rather hoping that I can put up one a week. I have a very nice macro lens (thanks honey!) that doesn't get used NEARLY enough, so the plan is same camera, same lens for every Pic O' The Week. Let's see what this baby can do....

It was a melting kind of day today, so there was lots of water in motion outside. We started out trying to get pics of droplets splashing on a railing out back, with less than spectacular results:

From there I switched to droplets falling, hoping for better luck:

Better, I think, but still not quite what I was looking for. So a bit more prowling around, and I found the fortunately placed corner that got us both some nice shots of droplets on the way down:

All in all, an interesting variety of pics in a short amount of time (and a little lesson in perseverance along the way).
