This morning I decided to test out the dew drop refraction jig. I didnt have many flowers to choose from at all. So all i got to do was a coneflower and what i think is a mum.
Enjoy, and please critique

Thanks Brian, Racket, and Attic. Yes, Brian. These were all natural light. How do you go about lighting your's?

Mine are normally done with flash- I'm normally shooting these between 2:1 and 3:1 magnification.

I like how the droplets in #2 reflect a flower below the leaf.

Thanks brian, I have unfortunately lost my refractor for the onboard flash. And have had to resort to natural light for the time being. I also only have a macro lens capable of 1:1
