Photo: Drops of Life

Drops of Life — water drops falling off a hand [1]

Raindrops falling off my hand, with the high-contrast black and white effect I love. It’s my hand; I held it up so the rain water would run off it, managing the camera with the other hand (as I’m so good at). Since the sun was behind my, it made my hand a black silhouette. These droplets represent life, because hands and the human touch is the essence of life.

Canon Rebel XTi [2], EFS 18-55mm [3], 1/3200, F3.5, 18mm, ISO1600, 2007-08-31T15:47:26-04, 2007-08-31_19h47m26

Source image [4]. Added a touch of contrast, and removed the little bit of color that was there. This one was great out of camera. 1600ISO speed, but there isn’t much noise for some reason. (Maybe because it was cool out?).

Free high-res stock image [5].
