One of my past workshop participants had some success and I always like to give them a plug.

Hi, Mike. I hope you’re fine.
I’m pleased to report that the Midland newspaper today published three of my close-up photos of raindrops on flowers.
The images were captured in my front yard — not some distant, exotic site — with consumer-grade equipment (a Pentax K-x camera I bought used), that camera’s kit lens (18-55mm), and two Raynox add-on lenses, stacked with a 49-43 mm step-up ring. The Raynox lenses are the DCR-150 and DCR-250. (Both pieces of Raynox equipment can be bought from Hunt’s Photo & Video and other vendors.)
The newspaper’s headline for the photos is May shower, May flowers. The caption says Saturday’s raindrops enhance the beauty of tulips and wild geraniums.
Best wishes.
Stu
