I was drawn to take this photograph by the line of tiny water droplets, like miniature glass marbles, cradled atop a blade of grass. While taking the photograph, I noticed that there also seemed to be water droplets along the underside of the grass blade. At home, viewing the image in Picassa, I was surprised to see these globes of water hanging so delicately, like suspended worlds. I included two near-identical pictures below because the second one includes an image of the photographer (the first one includes part of the photographer’s hand, but not his distinctive hat). Can you spot this unintended “selfie”?
All of life hangs in the balance between water and sun. Your photograph captures the beauty of both.
Thank you, Jane. I love that image of a balance between water and sun. Very elemental.
