Macro Photo Competition 2013 No 2 : Entry Number 371

Congratulations for this very nice shot, I find all very soft and gives a magical atmosphere in this picture! The treatment is very well done and the blue suits him very well.

Hi, my name is Janne and I'm a 22 years old student from university of technology in Helsinki, Finland. I like to experiment with different kinds of techniques and subjects to discover something new and exciting. In this photo there is dew on the fireweeds seed. This macro shot was taken with my Canon 100mm 2.8 macro lens and a reversed 50mm 1.8 on top of the macro lens. That allowed me to get an extremely high magnification of around 4:1. So the "big" drop you see in this photo is almost invisible to the naked eye. Check out my flickr for more! -Janne
