Nice DOF. I think a flash would have helped to freeze that drop in the first one. I might have framed the icicles a little to the left of center.
Just my :twocents:

Nice job Casil. Icicles are pretty cliche in my book but I think you did a nice job here. I have always tried doing something like this but just haven't put much effort into it. BF has the right idea, using a flash would stop that water dead in its tracks. It would be nice to see where you go with this. Keep up the work. Its nice to see you progress as fast as you are.

I think this one seems the best of the droplets...?

Thanks JJ...it's nice to have the time to do this right now and your and others members encouragement on this forum make me want to go out and keep trying and learning.

The middle shot in the last past is really cool. The water droplet is nearly perfect. Its too bad you couldnt get it just barely off the icicle. Good shot regardless.

I like that 3rd shot ... the one in post 3

I like the 4th one because the droplet is so sharp.
Hey MA, It will be winter here soon! Who's going to get the first snow or icicle shot?:D

Icicle I might be able to find ... maybe. Snow ... race you to New Zealand? :cool:
Roll on winter!! No more sunburn, huge temperatures, and good lighting that lasts longer than 30 mins after sunrise and 20 mins before sunset! :rolleyes:
AND sunrises later than 5am and sunsets before 7pm!!!

...and we in the Great White North are looking forward to those high temperatures, not shoveling snow, wearing single layers of clothing as opposed to 3 layers, summer lightning storms, flowers blooming again (and GREEN grass :highfive:) and daylight lasting longer than 7 hours! Mind you having to get up super early to go catch morning light in the Rockies is a bit daunting, but hey...that's what camping in the mountains is for!
YaY Spring....bring on summer!!
Thanks for the positive comments everone..this was a fun shoot for me!

I like the play here - the shot in post 3 and the first shot in post 7 are my faves. The focus is off in many of the shots which is making them less strong than they could be. :twocents:
