Sprinkler

Sprinkler

While Maxim was sleeping I was entertaining myself with the sprinkler photography. I made 14 shots using all sorts of exposures. I was trying to catch the water drops, but failed. The sprinkler was in the shadow, but the leaves around it were brightly lit with the sun. I tried shooting with and without polarizer, with automatic and manual exposure, with exposure compensation, etc. Neither of 14 frames captured the sprinkler the way I wanted. I don’t know if it is at all possible, but if it is, I surely don’t know how. I have selected the single image and processed it a bit in Gimp to make it look better. Still, not what I wanted.

A couple of pigeons and a toilet dilemma are also in the album.
