In the vegetable garden

In a vegetable garden near home I was ready before sunrise behind the bud of the pea flower and I shot against the first ray while the nigth still resisted in the shades between the rows.

D800E, Nikkor 200mm macro - f/20 and ISO 250

Thanks for opinions and advices.

Very nice shot, Gigi. I like your use of the first rays in the morning.

Just sweet… pea! Crafted smartly with the black b/g and rear lighting to pop the droplets ...worked well. Superb!

Cool, artistic image, Gigi. Very impressed when I clicked on the thumbnail. Good use of the light and shadow, and the detail in all the tiny dew drops is superb. :toast:
