I think it is fascinating what beauty surrounds us if we simply stop and take a closer look.  For example, next time you are in the garden after it rains, take a real close look at the water drops.  Images are there!  Each water drop acts like a magnifying lens for whatever is behind it.  This type of photography requires very fine focusing with a tripod and good lighting.  It works best with symmetrical flowers like daisies, because magnification turns the image upside-down.  These flower photos are exactly as seen and not computer-generated.
