Bluets and Dew Drops, repost

This is probably my favorite bluet shot of the morning...maybe! There are dew drops behind the flowers which are lit up by the sun.

Nikon D90, 40mm macro, handheld

Christine - I like this bokeh, typical of light refracted from water drops but this does not have universal appeal like black backgrounds.

You managed to get at least one bloom in reasonable detail and that works well as the pivot for me.

I wasn't real sure of the background but it is what it was...green. So saying, I also played with having it as a just black and white.

I love the lit up droplets, and the colors of the flowers are nice too Christine. I wish that the leading edge of the center of the flower on the right was sharp - but that was not a shot killer.
