[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I was doing a photo safari with my cousin in Alaska. We were walking on this little offbeaten path while in was raining. I don't know exactly what this is, but I loved the raindrops hanging from it.

I have only cropped and resized.

Nice use of a shallow DoF to separate the flower-head from the background, but for me the area of sharp focus is not quite right. I find the blurry water droplets at the top of the flower head a bit of a distraction and think it would have been better to focus on these letting the rest of the flower gradually go out of focus. (hope that made sense)

Hi Mary,
In spite of the fact that this photo lacks some sharpness, the colors are amazing.
A very nice presentation.

PS: Welcome to TL :D

I like this shot. I have to agree with the others in that your point of focus just isn't quite right, but you have a very good eye for a great photo. I do like your DOF in that the background is all out of focus keeps the eye on the droplets and the flower as you intended I think.
Keep shooting..
