Very nice. I'm inspired everytime I get on this site and look at all these flora images. This is another one of those images that pushes me to keep photographing in the quest to capture "that one" perfect image. I love the color and detail here and the single drop of water adds such a soft heartful touch. Well done.

Hi Kathy

I prefer this comp to the previous. Wonderful colour, equisite detail and the solitary "tear" is special.

Vibrant color and the solitary drop is excellent.

Very nice, Kathy. My eye goes quickly to the lone "teardrop" - colors are also nice

A wonderful wash of warm colors and the water drop is the icing on the cake, Kathy.

Kathy, excellent color, detail, and lighting. The water drop is a great focal point. Not sure how much the upper part of the image adds, especially the black and OOF areas.

Intriguing image Kathy. I see you opted for the black bg! Curiousity is getting the better of me - did you rotate this capture? Also have an idea on the the black bg that we can talk about tomorrow.

Hi Kathy.

Very dramatic color and detail. The teardrop is the finishing touch for a splendid capture.

Kathy: Wonderful color and the drop is a real plus element. For me the top is too distracting. I would crop this to 4:5 at least and maybe even 6:7 to get rid of most if not all of the black. >=))>

Beautiful colors and the comp work for me. The drop is an attention grabber. It could also work with a crop off the top where the black bg shows.
