Day 46 of 50 (50mm for 50days)
Today has been rainy and icky. I’ve been inside all day. My creativity wasn’t moving and basically I was feeling like a lump. So when life gives you lemons you make lemonade. I decided to try to express this in my photo for the day. I think it worked out ok.
Conversion to B&W with Nik Silver Efex Pro (Have I mentioned how much I love that plugin????)

awesome…. great choice of focus
very nice Jeff. I know what you mean about a lack of creativity at the moment, although that isn’t really obvious in your photos

Greatabstract shot! The DOf is really cool!
No matter how you feel you always come up trumps Jeff. Great cropping and the dof is cool.

it has been rainy all week here… but it’s okay you end up capturing awesome images like this one.
love the droplets..and b/w
looks super cool.
made me think of light bright immediately.. our day was very similar… and now work tomorrow… NO end in sight either…
This is so cool Jeff, I love the focus and your processing. Nice way to make lemonade out of those lemons!

That’s the kind of day we had yesterday – perfectly captured. Nice job!
Very good mood
looks great on black…the background droplets almost looks like pixels on a screen (or maybe i’m too much of a geek!).
Rain is not icky! ;-p

Great shot…
Rain makes for some good pictures, grab an umbrella and shoot so drops!
I do like this though ^.^
I Like It A Lot
Thank you for sharing with ClanFlickr
very good Jeff, I like the mood you developed.
Thanks everyone; really appreciate the comments
I just wasn’t feeling it yesterday then this idea came to me. I thought ‘let’s go with the mood isntead of fighting it.’ I eneded up quite liking how it turned out.
