Love the dew. This would make a good pano. The colors on the flower are nice. Not sure the ladybug adds anything because it is so small.

I really like the colours, it's difficult to say but I wonder what it looks like without NIK and just a little Clarity and possibly a tiny bit of Dehaze??

[Ravi Hirekatur]

Thanks for your comments on this. I cropped it to pano and dehazed it. I think it looks better.

[Jonathan Ashton]

Mmm it does look better, very nice indeed.

Another exquisite image of a seemingly nothing subject. I wish for a bit more room on the right. And I think that the pano crop is too tight, possibly by a lot. IOW, I really like Pane #1,

with love, artie
