My water drop photography is a labor of love. I am a retired hairdresser from Nova Scotia Canada. Photography came into my life as a result of prolonged health issues. I am mostly self taught and have spent 4 -5 yrs developing my water drop photography. My images are not photo shopped, they are captured in camera. I love capturing a moment in time that is so pure and present but usually never seen with the naked eye . The beauty of these small worlds are amazing to me, ever changing and always a challenge to capture. 5 of my water drop images have been chosen by Kodak from a world wide submission as Picture Of The Day and displayed on Time Square NY . 1. Sea Shell Drop - July10/08 2. The Great Speckled Drop - March 25/09 3. Water Dance - May 31/09 4.Water World - April 30/10 5. Nursery Drop - May 13/10. My work has been exhibited in Galleries in Atlantic Canada and has won many awards in online contests. I find myself fascinated by a single drop of water; the closer one looks the more mystery and beauty can be seen. In January 2013 I earned a spot as one of the best photographers of 2012 from Pixoto, a photo community that is trying to offer an alternative to popular platforms like Flickr and 500px, while also focusing on crowdsourced photo ranking. In early 2013 the membership topped 100,000, with almost 4,000 photos uploaded daily. Every year the top 20 photographers are determined in each category using an average of 10 highest scoring images in each category. What an honor for me that my images were so well received.
