If my area is prone to morning dew, cool mornings are a great time to get out and do some photography. As one part of the exposure triangle, increasing my shutter speed decreases the amount of light entering my camera, while still giving me reflections off the water droplets. Also if I don’t want to add too much extra exposure to the scene from the flash, I’ll need to adjust my shutter speed to compensate for the extra light.
SUN REFLECTION ON WATER MANUAL
Manual flash gives me precise control over how much light bounces back to me. Manual flash is the best choice here instead of Auto flash. In case it’s an overcast day, or I’m unable to move to a position where the sun’s rays are reflecting my camera, I can use the flash instead. If the sun is in the proper place, it’s relatively easy to capture light reflecting off of the droplets. Which I get depends on my position and the lighting available. Or they can reflect light striking them, giving a star effect to the photograph. The droplets can act as lenses to the scene behind the water droplet. When photographing water droplets, the reflections, or lack thereof, are extra important. So how can I take great photos of water droplets? #1. Today I’m starting with the smallest amounts of water I can. From the smallest drop to the largest ocean, water captivates the artistic spirit.
