Just Watered

Description

I went to the little park in Geneva to take my lunch and the park maintenance guys just finished watering the plants in their little garden where I took this shot. I took this at 1:15 pm in the afternoon and it was sunny and breezy. Instead of taking a shot of a plain leaf with the water droplets, I took this one because it something which I thought added a little interest to the photo. My focus point was the center of the plant where the majority of water droplets where. I took this with my Nikon D70s with VR 55-300mm lens @ 300mm, Focus Mode AF-S, AF Area Mode Dynamic, Aperture F/8, ISO 320, Shutter Speed 1/125s, Aperture Priority, Exposure Compensation +0.7EV and spot metering.

I really like how you can the detail of the water droplets and the detail of the leaf as well. Thank you for looking.
