John: Terrific comp and really good DOF/POF management. The little images in the refractions are icing on a very fine cake. Well done.>=))>

Jon: I like the panorama format for this. Wonderful sharpness, and like Bill said, the refractions add tremendously to the appeal of this image!

The pano format works perfect with your comp here. Great light, dof, and color.

As everyone else has said, this is a great composition. IMO the bright background competes unfairly with the drops. Other than that it really is a fine image

John,

Beautiful job, and do agree with Nancy's comment. The yellow portion of the leaf draws the eyes away from the tears.

Nice job,

Carol

I like the clarity of the raindrops and leaf edge along the entire width of the frame. I think I would prefer this with a crop from the top to remove some of the yellow. Nice work
