Green Leaves and Dew Drops
Taken this morning, dew on Forsythias leaves. I am rusty and out of practice so not sure if this would qualify as one of my best. Except for the center two leaves the rest are a bit soft. I was trying to control the background and keep it out of focus, but I could have used a bit more DOF and would have been alright. I also boosted the saturation of the greens a bit to make the leaves pop against the black background. As always comments welcome and thanks for looking!

10D ISO100 F/4.5 @ 1/60sec 28-80 lens and tripod

David, I really like the saturation of the greens in this shot.

Hey David, good to see you got out with a camera in hand! I like the saturated color of the leaves, nice diagonals and of course the water drops always add a nice element. Thanks for posting, hope you can get some more shooting in! :wavey:
