    Tiny magnifiers

    It just finished raining and I thought I would grab some close-ups of water on my daffodils. This is just one in a series - maybe I will put others up when I get a chance.

    Great, I think you should crop in even tighter on the rain drops.

    Make 'em BIG!
    No, I DON'T need that.

    When I crop I fool around with several looks before I decide on the final. Try keeping the same aspect ratio as the original and mostly work on cropping from the top and see how that is.

    I think the photo has to be bigger. Cropping just cramps it. It could be a little darker and colors saturated a but.
