Caught in the act!

Well, this place has been quiet for some time! To break you out of hibernation, here is a shot of a melting icicle. Taken with my new Christmas toy (Pentax K-20D) and my trusty 50mm/f1.7 prime lens, it's a crop of a somewhat larger image. The falling droplet manages to focus the background surprisingly well:


If you rotate the picture, you should be able to make out the barn (immediately to the right) and the house (off to the distance).

I have some other interesting icicle shots, but I'll save them for another day.

The second image is very cool indeed. Especially with the reflection in the droplet. Nice...
