Evan Alexander said (3 Dec 2009):
If you like this, consider Bill Sosin's photography @ BillSosin.com. He lives in Chicago & experimented with taking shots of people & lights in the background while focusing on the raindrops on his car window. Pretty impressive stuff. With even less background detail, the pieces become very subjective and abstract.
peggy gardner said (4 Dec 2009):
actually this is not one of my favorite images. I fired two shots, one focused on the road and had the wiper blade in it, then fired again and it focused on the windshield. I believe the post processing has a lot to do with it's appeal.
peggy gardner said (4 Dec 2009):
I will add if you like a tidy shot, pay attention to how you frame it out. it's not necessarily the subject ..it's the presentation of it.

comparing serving salad on a paper towel to in a bowl w/fork.
