    Gathering Raindrops

    This is what I saw as I was out, about Sunday morning.

    Not quite as sharp as could be. I liked the surface tension of that one raindrop. Your thoughs ?

    Re: Gathering Raindrops

    Rick, pretty image but your composition is a tad too loose IMO.

    The shot is too wide as the green leaves don't add to the shot. I think had you shifted to your left slightly to get the stamens perfectly head on (and vertical) and moved in to fill the frame with just the one bloom (and not the whole bloom), it would have more impact.

    Please don't take any offense. JMHO
