Positive thinking : Catch a Rainbow

So, this is part 2 of my Dandelion-Waterdrop Photography (Just think positive) which I have continued yesterday afternoon, and thinking positive worked somehow, because today I can show you some results 😊

I know the photos are far from perfect, but I have never shot such images before and I am quite positively surprised, because after some Photoshop editing I kind of liked the images myself 😉

Again, I have made some mistakes, haven't broken a glass again though ;)

This time I used my computer monitor as background, which showed an abstract colorful background and I illuminated the dandelion seed with my new RGB LED Video Light, which I have set to change colors randomly. This combination produced a quite colorful image - even more colorful than I had thought.

At first I wanted to photograph a bunch of seeds together, still attached to the seedhead and spray some water drops on them to get a nice photo as I had it in my mind. But that was my first mistake, because with the first spray of water all seeds flew away 😉

My second mistake actually was not that bad in the end: I wanted to add a bigger water drop to the single seed which I photographed after my first mistake, but it went wrong and the hair of the seed wrapped around the drop. That wasn't intended, but it made the drop of water look like a little rainbow caught. Somehow I liked this image more than the one I actually wanted do make and so I kept it.

I have found one more very short poem which is so sweet I think, and which I want to share with you.

So, that's all for today, and there's just one more thing for me to say ...

All photos were shot with the Canon EOS R and the SIGMA 105mm 1:2,8 DG MACRO HSM lens. Of course, I have done some Photoshop editing.

I leave all EXIF and IPTC information stored in the pictures.
