19th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Water drops on the edge of a giant hosta leaf

I was out doing a photo walk in my neighborhood in Chevy Chase, MD with my 50MM lens. I don't use the lens often, and was considering selling it, but was working on depth of field shots for a class I have been taking and thought I could use it. I decided to get low and close and while scanning the leaves saw these beautiful water drops.
