Fishing for Macro.
Everything in this photo is actually inside one shot. I used a small bowl of water with some clay right under the water to attach the hook. This is a very small hook for small Trout fishing in Norwegian mountain rivers. It`s about 5mm across the inside arch. Then I had a tablet behind it with one of my other photographies of a man fishing. The tablet has to be upside down to get it right. Then I sprayed and also tried to drip water on top of the hook to get the reflection of the fisherman inside the droplet. This was difficult because it wasn`t easy to see the small details if everything was angled correct with my bare eyes. So many shot`s was taken, and many water attempts was done to get the droplet to stick in the right place. And with the 90mm Sony macro lens, everything behind got blurred out, so only minor adjustments in post was necessary to get the final result.
