Signals, photo by Harold Davis. View this photograph larger.

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.
