    Beautiful image; love the dew drops coating the wings and the stem...great control of your DOF and producing that creamy background...great control of your flash lighting as well, particularly in controlling highlights from the moisture. Nicely done!

    Hi Jonathan. All the water drops really add to this image! Also good sharpness, comp, and background. I would not have initially thought that you used flash on this - so good work on that account! Very well done!
