    Pretty good detail. Overall shape of that fern isn't quite the same but the individual leaves look like our Maiden Hair fern.
    I would play around with cropping. Get rid of that bright spot at top left and play with it until the main leaf is more prominent but not centered.
    Keep Shooting!

    Re: Winter rain

    Frog,
    Again thanks for your help and comments. I have as you can see cropped the photograph and I think that the effect is better. In truth though it is not a fern,it is a 45 foot tall tree called a Delonix Regia and it is a native of Madagascar. When our much needed rains started I was looking out of the window at the tree and by chance the was a break in the clouds an a shaft of sunlight hit the water drops. The effect was stunning.So I grabbed my camera and nearly ran outside but by then the sunlight was gone. I took the picture anyway. The shot was above my head .
