The world is upside down.

You know those photos with a glass sphere? You will see the whole image upside down in in the ball. Quite a cool effect. Waterdrops do the same trick. Maybe not as perfect... more distorted. But the idea is the same.Znacie te zdjęcia z kulą szklaną przez którą widać wszystko do góry nogami? Fajny myk. Ale zwykłe krople wody też taki myk potrafią. Może nie tak idealnie... wszystko jest bardziej rozmazane. Ale zasada jest taka sama.

I have two reasons to grow all those plants. One to look at them when I drink my coffee and relax and second for photos. I can shoot them whenever the weather is good (and here it is almost all the time) and whenever I need a new supply of fresh photos. It was the time when Chrysanthemum flowers were all fully open. I sprayed them with some water and was hunting lovely little drops running down the petals. One flower and a million of tiny mirrors.Mam dwa powody, dla których te wszystkie chwasty hoduję. Pierwszy primo to żeby oko nacieszyc przy kawie i się zrelaksować, a drugi primo to oczywiscie zdjęcia. Wszystko mam do dyspozycji gdy tylko potrzebuję czegoś nowego i pogoda jest dobra (a tu prawie cały czas jest). Pora przyszła na Chryzantemy, których kwiaty już maksymalnie rozkwitły. Trochę wody w spryskiwaczu i mogłam dowolnie forografować spływające z płatków krople. Jeden kwiat z milionem lusterek.

The new Chrysanthemum season is coming. I see the buds forming already. And this year I'll have 3 colours! All the pretty drops on different petals.Jako, że zbilża się sezon Chryzantemowy nawet tu, to w tym roku będę je miała nie w jednym kolorze, ale w trzech. Już widzę formujące się pączki.

Lovely. I do love the effect when shooting water. How lucky you are to have a playful area just ready to be captured. :)

You need to start growing one too :) It is sooo cool!

perhaps. was thinking about some new editions actually

I wonder how the plants feel about this, since I do the same. I consider it earning their keep :P

I think they have no clue what we are doing... nor care as long as they get sun and water :)
They kind of do earn, right? Earn more I buy them better fertilizer ;)
