    Once you try f/32, it's nice to go back once in a while(at least partially, f/22) even if my main opening may be very wide. Lotus leaf in pond border, Fruit and Spice Park.

    That's beautiful Fabs. I like the simplicity of the composition, the complimentary colors and the curve of the leaf.

    One minor observation : you have a bit of softness the width of the image at the very bottom about twice the height of your signature. It only stands out because everything else is so darn sharp. :)

    I love the different sized water droplets Fabs. Great complimentary colors to boot too. A pretty fine macro in anybody's book!
    Thanks for sharing. :)

    Hey Fabs, My best selling images at all my art shows are the f/32 images. All the soft wide open abstracty images are left home as they don't sell well for me. People tend to think you're a better photographer if you get everything in focus, and this is the easiest stuff to shoot. Well done here, I really light the highlights in the waterdrops.

    Amazingly rendered!

    Love those droplets and the ''gamuza'' look of the leaf.

    The colors and abstract curve are simply wonderful in this image, Fabs. You're inspiring me to go try f32 again! The detail and clarity beneath the largest waterdrop really makes this image special IMO.

    It's hard to do something new and different with water drops and leaves, but you've done it, and it's beautiful.

    One very minor point. The lower front corner is just starting to look a little soft. A T/S lens will let you keep everything sharp even at moderately large apertures when the subject plane is not parallel to the sensor or film plane.
