    Re: Simple Drops

    Wow!!! Emily is going to want to talk to you!!! Tremendous water drops!

    1 is fabulous but looks bland by comparison with 2, which is cool for it's colors, but 3 has that great ever enlarging trailing drop of refracted orchids or lilies (can't tell which), followed closely by, 4 the polka-dot drops in a trailing stream to the surface. Whew!! Nothing to nit pick here! Nice textures and focus. Beautiful composition. Please show us more.

    P.S. Welcome to the forum.

    Re: Simple Drops

    Not sure you could get much better pics than these. All of these are excellent shots. My favorites are 2 and 3 as a tie. Really nothing to be critical of here. Colors are great, sharpnes the same and an absolutely wonderful job on 3 with capturing the trailing drop.

    Re: Simple Drops

    #4 is my favorite! The big drop is like a disco ball

    However, all of them look great, and the details you caught of the flowers in the drops is wonderful. Welcome to PR!

    Those are amazing!

    I definitely want some technical details on this! I doubt I'd ever be capable of something like this.

    Outstanding work,
