Nah, if you want a sub-5, you gotta work a LOT harder than this! Neat concept, and you pulled it off well.

Very nice detail and very nice score.

I like the spotlights formed by the little droplets concentrating the sunlight on to the leaves. I have a shot somewhere on my hard drive that's rather similar to this but not quite as rich and lovely.

You have such a talent in terms of seeing a very "artsy" style of shot! There are a lot of people in here who truly appreciate and love this type of "eye" for shots like this. Keep up your "vision" from behind your lens because DPC's tastes have a certain "flavor" to their preferences thus far, BUT......that's slowly changing now! I see it coming! Please enter this in some of the other sites too! PUHHHLEEEEZZZZE! :)

Sweet photo girl :) the low angle lighting IMO really kicks this one up :)

Bice shot and I love the sharpness and the integrity of the water drops in the illuminated central part of the leaves

Great greens and a wonderful velvety textured feel to the leaf itself. I was just wondering (if it had been possible) what this might have looked like with a square crop just tight around the water drops at the centre (although given your score I guess it did OK as it was!!!)

Great abstract and I love the dof you have used which has given gentle forground bokeh and really strong background bokeh with, sandwiched in between the very strong tones and sharpness of the leaf

I thought the border worked really well on this shot
