Seems to be a bit washed out, but I love the water droplet and depth of field.

Comment by whagerbaumer:
And the reason why. Very nice photo. The subject is not as totally defined as I would like. I would like to have seen this with the camera closer, with a little more exposure on the wire. The background is wonderful. It would have been superb if the raindrop had brought into focus what the aperture of the camera left diffuse.
The gradation of color and light in the background is highly appealing and I enjoy looking at this picture. I am hesitating about moving onto the next one to rate.

Great work.

A 9.

Subject seems a bit underexposed. I like the drop of water, makes it much more interesting.

Would suggest at landscape orientation instead of portrait. Otherwise, neat idea! =-)

you could probably have gotten away with a tigher crop on the top intead of centering the barb. I think would have had a greater impact on the picture and would have given it a 10. <8>
