[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
this photo was taken few months ago and just find the time recently to play with it.

just amazed by the single droplet that's in between the leaves. this specifc droplet was there for about a day or two before it dried out.

if any one wants to do a workshop, please feel free to do so. i like my pp work but for some reason i am not satisfied with the edges of the leaves. the're just too bright. OE to some.

for my PP work, darken a little, sharpen increase degree of coloration, cropped and added borders.

to all passers by, thanks.

Hi y2koSan,
The composition is good though there were 2 subjects to tell a story.
In my opinion, if droplet will be emphasized here, then it will be cropped nicely in order to catch attention as it was outsized by the petal.
Need color saturation and sharpening i supposed.
Good luck!

Hello Sani,
OE and needing a bit of sharpening aside this is a great shot of the petals of this ericaceous desert plant.
Very well composed and presented.
B/W might decrease some of the effect of the OE.
TFS, Joni

nice composition but image is sharp need bit more sharpness and saturation

regards
Deepak

Hi,
I do like the softness of the image in this case. I think it fits the plant well. The soft edges in the amount of light green is fine for me. You're right about the over exposed edges though.

But it's a lovely macro in my opinion.
kind regards, Heike

This is gorgeous SaNi. I love the soft dreamy look yet it still captures details and shape of the succulent plant. The greens are quite soothing to view, and the well-formed water drop adds 'oomph'. My compliments. Ingat 'bro. Danilo

Hello Sani,

Absolutely lovely work here Sani. The soft greyish greens, strong lines, soft feel and then the view of the half-hidden special drop, like a treasure tucked away nice and cosy.

Well seen.
