Richard:
Good job getting this so nicely exposed. Like the darkish bg as well. The drops are refreshing.

Richard,
I really like how the flower stands out well from the dark background. Great exposure control and beautiful droplets. :toast:

Fine texture in this Richard and the subject isolation tends to make for a striking image. I might consider a slightly tighter crop on both sides but that's entirely subjective. Beautiful work as posted.

Excellent detail. The clarity in the water drops is outstanding.

Great detail in the flower and raindrops and good exposure, Richard. I agree with a tighter crop, mostly on the right. Also, IMHO, I would darken the light area under the lower right petal.

Richard,

Beautiful lighting and rich colors. The water droplets add a nice touch. Well Done.
