Raindrops in the sun

No heavy PP today.
When I came in the garden this morning I found this raindrop glancing in the sunlight.

Resizing and a little framing was enough for this picture.

It looks like melty gold. Nice to see a picture into the drops, what is it?
Good picture.

Truly a fantastic image. The reflections, the colors and the simple composition make this a very fine photo. You have a great knack for making the ordinary very extraordinary.

I'm typically not a fan of the abstract (because I can't seem to create abstract "art" of any kind to save my neck) but this is really cool. I love the tones and the composition!

Very nice shot,Rob! and with no PP? Would you suffer of any nova fever? Very well done! Congrats!

Congratulations Rob!
This is a very nice image. Each raindrop is like a mirrored jewel against a wall of gold. Well seen!

Wow! Hundreds of little photos in one. Nice colors and contrast. Shades that fit very well together.
Bravo Rob!

Good catch! Amazing how the small droplets turned out to be so black. Excellent!

It's a texture incredible... The nature have nice surprises sometime. It was a good one.. and you take it very sharp!

Hi Rob,
Can't beat mother nature when it comes to PP work ;-). What kind of surface are the drops on? Mooi werk.
Groeten,
Paul

Sometimes life, and photography, can be quite simple, Rob... and beautiful as well. Excellent compo, with some nice reflections too. TFS.

Yes, all that was needed was a good camera and a good eye. This is a lovely arty shot of liquid gold. But it needs a frame for the art gallery. See my WS.

Macro très réussie avec ces détails impressionnant! Belles lumière et tonalité. Création très originale. Bravo.
Bye, Jacques

Hi Rob, a simple photograph full of character and detail. I could see so much in the drops. Always so interesting, still can't make out what surface were the drops on. Thanks

What a great catch. I love the molten drops of gold. I like photos of colours and shapes so I was drawn to open this one and take a closer look and I am glad I did. Very well done.

Rob,
I see you got your Skoda waxed, and forgot removing the red and giving it a golden shine in PP.
Great job anyway, and tell Lars he is good with the waxing.

Hi Rob, A very nice capture this is. Its graphically very pleasing and I like the way the drops (especially the bigger ones) work like a distortion mirror. Very fine job. Regards, Bert

Regendruppels in de zon? Volgens mij is het gewoon een 3D pantervelletje! ;-)

Very beautiful macro Rob. I like the texture and the reflections of the water drops. Very well done.

Water droplets always look good in photos but I like this because of the textured gold background which has made the droplets stand out even mor with lovely reflected colours

Very well noticed and captured, Rob! So simple and beautiful. I don't think the frame compliments the picture, but this doesn't make the picture less interesting. Thank you so much for sharing.

Wonderful! The reflections within the droplets are fascinating in themselves!

Hello Rob, this is beautiful! I can clearly see why it caught your attention. I love the droplets, all different sizes, in a repetitive fashion, against this golden bg.

Good close-up. Well done and well seen.

Cheers, Yan

HELLO ROB!
The color is trully beautifull and makes all the difference! You managed to transform a common thing to something very precious and great!
Congratulations.
