Magic Within Water Drops

This photograph reminds me of a magical dream. The dream is a kingdom like faerie within the minature flowers and water drops.

I have been photographing water drops a great deal lately. To some degree this is an issue of making lemonade with one is given lemons: the Bay area has seen an incredible amount of rain this spring.

Besides this, I love to photograph water drops. Each water drop is a world, complete with shape, color, reflections, and change. I believe that if one spends a long time looking at a single water drop, one can see all that it is important to see.

You can see more of my photographs of water drops by browsing my Flickr Water Drops set, or by having a look at the Water Drops category on Photoblog 2.0.
