Dew in the morning

To get the photo to the right, I had to get up early. Which is to say, before the sun rose.  Dew is ephemeral, disappearing shortly after the sun touches it, so you really need to be ready.

Look at the photo closely.  See the lighting patter in the dewdrops themselves?  This is because the dewdrops are backlit.  The sun is behind them and slightly to the left (from the camera’s perspective).

So if you’re up early enough, and the light is right, you’re left with only needing to find the correct angle for the background.  This shot was aimed deliberately to blur out all of the greenery behind the subject, with the intent of hopefully creating bokeh.
