This water drop photo differs from most of my water drop images because it is an exercise in selective focus and relatively low depth-of-field. It was exposed at f/8 for 1/80 of a second, and a single drop on the spider web strand is apparently sharp. More typically with these photos I stop the lens as far down as it will go, and make a much longer exposure.
Here’s more about my water drop photo techniques.
