Good Morning, TL-members!

I always wanted to do but I never had guts to capture fresh rainwater droplets, resting on plant leaves.
I find it so beautiful whenever I see drops of water lying in that manner, which somehow reflect other objects or nature. Here, I come with my first experiment, which is taken after a short spell of shower in the city of Halle.

I gave the picture the title: The World of Diamonds", as these water droplets look so pure and wonderful as you see them, they give appearance of several facets, as diamonds do :)

I hope you enjoy it :P

wishing myself good-luck for critiques/comments/suggestions ;)

Great and verry nice composition.Well done.Regards.Alin.

Hi Paras,
A great eye to see such illumination in these tiny droplets and share with us this beauty!
Very crystal clear droplets well focused with the excellent use of shallow DOF!
Very fine work.
I like the colorful blurred BG, it increases impact to the composition.
Best regards,

Francis Xavier

Hi Paras,
Beautiful droplets. Nicely composed macro. Very fitting title. TFS Julie

Good morning Paras,
Indeed the well defined drops look like diamonds. Drops and drop shots are always fun but messy to produce. I may try this on later if I can finish my errands for the weekend. Thanks for giving me an inspiration and idea. regards.

Nice first attempt at these macro beads of water Paras. Nicely done. So interesting to see how these little drops can stay there in perfect spheres, and how they reflect everything around them!
It seems a little grainy in the background, and also ... I might have cropped up a little higher from the bottom. I find the blurred bottom of the shot to be a little distracting.
Still, a good shot.
