Hope you don't mind yet another water drop image from me; no birds have been cooperative for me lately :). In this one I liked the pattern produced by other grass blades in the BG. Any C&C are welcome!

Love the water drops Chris !!! Would crop from left to keep it off center With these you could also experiment in camera tilting .. can get neat effects !!! PS wise might go over the bg and smooth a bit more, sort of make it look as if it was taken with a 2.0 lens !!! Excellent !!!
btw what I have been trying is getting something recognizable in the drop and a pleasing surrounding So far no keepers !!!
Hi Chris,
I like the capture...agree with Mr. Forns on off setting the subject to the left side of the frame...also might want to tone down the yellows on the upper portion...keep them coming...:cool:
Thanks for the comments. I'll try the suggestions when I get a chance.
Al, Sometimes I go for a recognizable subject in the drop, other times not. The hardest part is finding that perfect drop! :D Hope you get some keepers soon!
