Another from Woodland on Sat morning.I like the stark white with the dew. White is difficult.Got to watch the exposure and the greens go dark.

oh wow... nice work Jerry! I love the detail! You kept the dew from blowing out and the comp is perfect. If I had to pick a nit, I would suggest burning the lower left bloom just a bit.
I didn't even shoot any of the white ones. I was so busy working the back light, I figured I'd just blow out the white tulips. Next time I'll know better :)

Looks nice.....I can see a few dust bunnies that you might want to clone out!
Nice Jerry, great detail! I agree with Curtis, the lower left is a bit distracting from that gorgeous one in the middle.

Great exposure control!

Wow, this is one of my favorites from all the nice close up I have been seeing here. The white and green look very clean along with the water droplets.

Wonderful control of the DOF here Jerry, and I love the dew. I agree that's a nice job on not blowing out the whites.
Besides the dust bunnies already noted this is a excellent tulip image. Some real nice ones on this forum this year. Glad to see folks got out there for them. Maybe I shall try next year.
Jerry, this is such a nice job with the whites and the dew. I'd like to see it cropped in tighter, coming down from the top to below the yellow oof flower at top center. Wow.
