This is wild and beautiful. I love the colors and abstraction. Thanks for sharing.

Nothing to say but "Me too." Wonderful!

Thank you, all, for the kind remarks. Although it is certainly gratifying to have one's images appreciated by others, I would love to have some critique here too. For example, would this image be improved by slightly more depth-of-field - giving a little greater visibilty to the other two dew drops to the right (all natural, incidentally)? And couldn't I have improved the framing a bit by moving myself slightly to the right so that the in-focus dew drop was centered in front of that darker diagonal region? Please do give me the benefit of some objective critique!

For me the dew drop is to centered. I would like it slightly more to the right. The two other points that catch my attention are the soft colours and the contrasting sharp "spikes". I would like to see the shot from slightly to the left silhouetting the spikes by the dew drop aginst the upper right light coloured area. The depth-of-field works well enough for me. Very nice shot BTW. Details? How much more depth could you have gotten?

Jack,

I'll ask you what my mentor used to ask me, "What is the subject?" There seems to be a lot competing for the viewer's interest. What was it about this scene that caught your eye?
