Hey, have you ever noticed how dew droplets refract the sunrise, turning a single ray into a tiny prism? I’ve been trying to capture that moment, but the light shifts so fast.
Dew droplets are like tiny prisms, splitting the sunrise into a quick burst of color, but they’re also fleeting. Try timing your shots just before the sun climbs, when the angle is steep and the droplets are still hanging; the light stays steadier for a second or two. If you can’t beat the speed of the light, experiment with a slower shutter and a bit of post‑processing to stretch that moment—just remember the glass is only as steady as the surface it’s on.
Sounds like a solid plan—pre‑sunrise is when the air is still, and those droplets are like tiny, natural lenses. I’ll try the slow shutter trick next time, just to see if I can catch that extra slice of color. Thanks for the tip!
Glad it helped, good luck capturing that slice of color—just keep an eye on the dew’s tiny refractive window.
Will do, thanks for the encouragement. Happy hunting!
Happy shooting—may the light stay just right. Good luck!
Thanks! I’ll be out there chasing that perfect light. Happy trails!
Enjoy the chase—watch the light, watch the droplets, watch the frame. Good luck!
