The leaves and stem in this pic is covered with ice.  I noticed some funny looking spots along the steam and some of the leaves.  Can someone tell me what they are and how to not get them again?  Thank you

ya mean the white bits? its the flash from your camera reflecting from the wet bits

i'm with Zollster on this. The white spots are from a hard flash.

Question the question. Answer the question. Question the answer...

I wish I knew what I was gonna say :oP

How not to get them again: diffuse your flash, or bounce it off a surface... anything but direct flash from the camera is going to give you better results. You could try just using a desk lamp for your lighting purposes on "studio" shots, all my studio shots are effectively done using a desk lamp or two as a lighting system :)

Thank you for you replies.  I am using a flash that worked with my 35 mm camera.  Currently my Digital SLR camera is now out being fixed for a metering problem that affects external flashes too,  so it will be a while before I get a proper one.
