Depth/Dimension using light
I wrote about brighing out textures in my blog some time back. On a similar note light can be carefully used to create dimension or depth. In this image oblique angle of light (mostly flash) helps add dimension to dew drops to emphasize them. Notice the shadow of dew drops in the above image which adds to the dimesion. These are very subtle details which can add a lot to the final visual expressions. Thanks for your views..

This is perfect. I am sorry am not very strong about techniques and shoot more from the heart than from the mind. Images like these go and strike deep inside, at least it struck me :). Love the monotones Ganesh.

Phew, this is stupendous! The ice-like deposits on the stamen and the shadows of the dew drops on the butterfly, which you pointed out, are simply fantastic! I'm very curious to see the colour version as well.
