Hi Everyone.

After seeing a bunch of people posting some lovely photographs of plant for 2012
photo of the year I made up my mind at last to post a photograph. I am not at all
sure wether my picture is good enough to be posted for the occasion. I have literally
no skills is photography as many of our members do. I use very simple cameras to 
take photos. The plant which I am posting is unidentified. One fine evening I was
returing home from lab and I saw a bunch of white flowers over a bush in one of my 
neighbours house here in Vancouver.The flowers were about 0.5cm across. It had just 
stopped raining and the glistering drop of water on the flowers were sparkling like 
pearls. I wanted to capture the moment but alas I had only my Sony Cybershot point 
and shoot camera in my bag I took out the camera with fear that I won't be able to 
capture the moment with this machine in my hand. At last I took a bunch of photos one 
came out kind of good which I am sharing out here. I am not sure how the members will 
react but I apologize for it. 

Best Regards
Tanay

Dear Tanay ji,
This has come out well.  Excellent shot. So expecting you to post many more....
Thanks for sharing..

I too had earlier  used Sony Cyber shot Point and shoot camera DSC-P-52 (No macro feature and with only 2X optical Zoom). But results were good.
Regards
Prashant

TAnay, your point shoot had good eyes behind the lens, and a steady
hand or two...

very good shot... I hope you got the whole plant and the leaves?

was it a hanging basket by any chance?

Excellent capture Tanay ji.  More than the instrument, it is the hand and eyes behind that counts.
Keep it up.

Dear Tanay, while going through your write-up, I thought of a bad and ugly shot !!
It turned out that the write-up misled me totally !!!
Excellent close up of half a cm flower. Looking forward for pictures of plants that you see around.
Regards.

Thanks Dinesh Ji and Balkar Ji. My old camera i.e. Sony Cybershot is one of my most reliable one.

Dear Tanay Ji, the first posting from your lens (For me) is one of the best display of the flower and the timing too is absolutely perfect. Great capture. Expecting similar display in the coming days.

Interesting pic.....I imagine when I last saw you sharing pics!!! but
finally you did!!!
Could this be Ochna?
By the way, I imagine what could be the significance of having such a
thick filament? Any ideas members?
Regards
Pankaj
