Dew drops (top dark part of a feather)

A pigeon, of yet unidentied type, left feather on the grass to freely collect some dew. Golden morning light sheds it feeble light and spreads a golden blanket on top.

Under a small tripod with 3 soligor extension rings (12mm, 20mm, 36mm) stacked with a prime 1.8 50mm. If the pigeon was still attached to this feather (and not yet met its creator), you would not have seen this:)

  1. The refelection of sunlight on this dark piece of feather makes it reflect light strongly. To get it like this I had to angle 90 degrees on the feather. Posted 13 years ago
  2. The drups give a effect of a microscope.
    Your photo's getting more artistic by the day Ludo!
