Today morning, when I looked outside, my eyes caught some dew drops shinning with the morning sun on the cherry tomato tree. Took my camera out and took this picture.

I could barely see myself in the dew drop..

The picture was taken using a 50mm prime lens and later cropped to give the close up feeling. f = 11 (to get the larger depth of field in closeup shots), shutter = 1/200 s and ISO = 100. A closeup filter was also used for this shot. Only small cleaning up on the computer.

I am a PhD candidate in Engineering who s pursuing photography as an art form and a hobby. I would like to use this site to share some of the pictures I took and share some experiences behind them. Personally I am against doing a lot of post processing, so a lot of the pictures will be right out of the camera. Please feel free to share your experiences or comments as well.
