Photo: Raindrops

Raindrops — drops of rain in beautiful black and white

One of my best photos: raindrops, captured in motion. It took about 70 shots to get this; it’s of water drops falling off the roof of my back porch. The sun came out, so I had light to use a fast shutter speed (1/2000 second).

I sharpened and added contrast to make this perfect.

Buy a 4*6 copy for $0.95 (USA only). Lustre finish. After adding, go to your shopping cart.
