This is one of those shots that, if it wasn't on DPC, but send everyone crazy. It's one of the nicest (purest?) shots of this genre i've seen.

Love the focus and the colours and the composition too. Admittedly, i was one of those that gave it a 6m but looking back I think it's superb and puts my drop shots to shame.

You're welcome to any inspiration I can give, Keith. I love this shot, it's beautiful just the way it is.

the right top hand corner is bothersome, really dragging my eye away from your subject.

did you ever think of a square crop here?

Great capture of a drop.. The white glare or maybe it's cream is distracting. Beautiful colors though in the base of the drop. 6

I really can appreciate how hard this shot is to get...mainly because I have tried and have never really been successful
