Wow... It's VERY easy to miss the subtleties of this shot. Beautiful focus, DOF, & colors. Glad I've taken a 3rd look. Excellent job. Bumping way up.

Another wet plant/flower shot. Nice composition, dof, & focos. Good idea about the umbrella. Lacks interest for me.

The left edge of the leaf is a tad too blurred for my taste, but the clarity of the drops to the right of it is really nice. I love a tone on tone macro of a leaf every time. 7

Ohhh, if it weren't for the title I would have overlooked this. That means it's too subtle for my taste...perhaps a tighter crop? Good thinking, though!

Very clear shot with a nice background. I'd like to see a bit less of a tight crop, but that's just me (in this case - usually I like tight crops, so go figure :-) I really like the cripness of the drops in the lower center right of the leaf.
