When
we're looking for the unknown, we look up at the stars and imagine all the
wonders they hold. But there's a whole cosmos just beneath our feet, ready to
be discovered. One of them is Don Komarechka of Barrie, Ontario, Canada. His
macro photography experiences offer a better knowledge of how everything works,
even things we can't see with our eyes.
Macro
photography is more than just close-up shots; it's a new way of looking at the
world, showing the tiniest and often-overlooked features of the subject. Don
Komarechka, uses his macro camera lens to explore nature presenting water
droplets as small works of art. "All of these photos are like small
sculptures." Komarechka explains, “Very fleeting, and only attractive when
viewed from the correct angle.”
Komarechka's
droplet series has little spheres of water scattered across petals and flower
stalks in each shot. The photographer's amazing photographs demonstrate how the
blooms are mirrored in the surface of the droplets by experimenting with
perspective. Each globule despite being liquid resembles a flowery glass
paperweight or snow globe. “I've always believed that the essence of the
beautiful photography is a blend of art and science; the more you wave that
mesh, the more wonderful the results will be,” Komarechka adds. “The essence of
the statement is water droplet refraction photography.”
Insects
are frequently seen sitting close to and among the fine drops emphasizing how
delicate these natural moments are. Komarechka captures these ephemeral moments
in photographs, capturing them just as a bug breaks the droplets or they fall
to the ground. “Photography enters as a supplementary element to capture the
little creations before the water evaporates and the magic fades,” he explains.
