Hi Helen - nice post! I like the bowed effect and the nearly mirrored duplicate in the background. I would have liked to see a little DOF on the front reed and water droplets - a smaller aperature would have helped! I also feel like the center stems are a bit too centered. The crossing lines are almost, but not quite right in the center of the image. I'm looking forward to more so "dew" post more!!

HI Helen You are going to enjoy the macro lens Its addictive !!!

For this type images you want to pay special attention to the bg Simple works better than complex Too many things are going on that catches my eye Would also like to see some of the drops in the center in sharp focus I like the idea and crop selection Would give it another try Lots of possibilities Can even isolate on one leaf and one drop !!! Hoping to see lots more !!!
