This month’s competition topic has been chosen by November’s winner Fracster.
His chosen topic is WATER - Sea, fresh or tap a topic open to wide interpretation. I expect we might see some very different entries. Good luck to all, & to anyone who hasn’t previously participated I encourage you to do so.
* Each month a new competition thread will commence & all forum members are invited to submit their photos .
* Maximum of three entries per person.
* Multiple entries should be made in separate posts
* Each entry should consist of a single photograph & a short description only
* Comments pertinent to entries are encouraged, but please do not use this thread to engage in banter
* Photos MUST have been taken by the member posting the photos or members of their party.
* Any photo which has been a winner will not be eligible for re-entry in any future competition.
* Please do not post photos that are not entries in the competition.
* The winner of the month's competition gets to choose the following month's competition topic.
* All members are encouraged to vote for the photos they think should win. This will be done by pressing the 'Thanks' button located underneath each post. Toward the end of the month the date & time of competition closure will be announced. Following this time the thread will be locked & the 'Thanks' counted to determine the winner.
* 'Thanks' may be added or withdrawn at any time during the month up until the competition is closed.
You are welcome to thank as many different posts as you wish!
* In the event of a tied first place I will add a casting vote, except in circumstances where my entry is one of the tied ones, in which case I will withdraw my entry.
*Inappropriate photos eg, sexual, racist, violent etc are unacceptable & should not be posted.
Thanks for your cooperation

This theme was set by my wife's forum group, which was refraction.
The picture is a water drop, which is in focus to show what is behind it being refracted threw the drop.
Wife and I spent several hours to get 4 good shots. This was my favorite, but she chose a different background.
Exposure- 1/200
Aperture- f/8.0
Focal length- 250
Iso- 1600
Enjoy
PS, needs to be viewed on computer to admire, a phone does it no justice..

Hey that is great. Can you tell us what the camera settings were on. I'm interested in the aperture and speed settings in this photo??

Im still learning, so ill get the wife to fill those details in in the morning.
One thing we did discuss was the need for a speed flash. You'll pic a little "ghost" shadow under the main drop, and that's due to the limited settings on the inbuilt flash.
So she said..
