Galliani, this is unique and really tells a story! The water drops are very clear and precise without being overexposed - sweet!

I really like that they are in different levels of the FG/BG - the repetition of them throughout the image makes them prominent and the lighting makes me want to reach in and see what you're seeing. Very nice!

Only negative I can think of here is that the FG is so OOF and so is one part of one of the droplets but I don't think this is a deal breaker - I still love the magical feel of the image.

This is beautiful, Carlo! IMO, this type of shot is what macro is all about...a chance to see the micro worlds that are all around us but rarely noticed. I agree with Jules that the only real negative is the OOF foreground but this is easily overlooked because the rest of the image is so nice. Well done!

[Brendan Dozier]

That is very cool. I like nice balance in composition and light great.

Hi Carlo. This very cool! Love the water drops and the reflections within. The sharpness within your DOF is excellent and I also like the clean background. The only minor issue for me is the stem exiting the frame on the lower left side - I think this strong image would be even better if there was a bit of space between the stem and frame edge. :)

Hi Carlo
agree with the previous comments. Very cool. But also the lowest part is fully OOF, that you could crop out.

Hey Carlo,
Very cool view indeed! I don't mind the OOF FG either as the rest of the image draws me in. Very unique and very nicely seen!
