Oh man. this is ready for a wall! Unspeakably beautiful light and texture on that front leaf, and impossibly sublime shades of green.(9)

Very pretty! I wish it were just that one awesome leaf and its reflection. The other detracts. Did you need it for shade? or what?

The detail and that pop of color on the orange one really makes it wonderful.

I guess it's water falling on plastic first and further down... nice effect.

Comment by Yo_Spiff:
I always have a hard time voting on shots such as this. It takes a lot of skill and much work with timing and lighting to nail the perfect frame. But it is something that has become a bit of a photographic cliche on this site and the personal appeal for me is limited. So I must give it a strong vote for what was accomplished, but I also have to reserve my highest votes for the entries that connect with me. I'm giving this a 7 and also expecting it to pull a ribbon.

I'm also going to guess this as an IreneM entry and if this is from someone else, that is a high compliment.

comments - I like the color and lighting but I'm perplexed with what it is (not necessarily a bad thing). It keeps me looking at it trying to figure it all out.
