Wet Oak Leaf (Canon EOS 5D Mark II, Sigma 105mm f/2.8 EX DG Macro lens, 1/200 sec at f/5.6, ISO 800, handheld)
I popped out for a slightly wet walk through the local woods with the dog this morning and took along my DSLR camera fitted with my Sigma macro lens for a change.  I don't do enough close-up and macro photography and it is something I always enjoy, but have usually acheived very mixed results.  For these five photographs I opted for some post-processing in Nik Collection's Silver Efex Pro 2 to produce a selectively desaturated effect.  The basic images were fine but lacked punch and a sense of the dull, overcast atmosphere.  The first is of an oak leaf with raindrop remnants, illustrating perfectly the wet conditions these trees have to endure in the west Highlands of Scotland.  The other shots were all treated in the same manner and I like them as a small collection.
