Nice capture of the rain drops

I would have liked it if it was evenmore croped onto the leaf to really see the drops and the relections in them

Yea... no post processing....yet

[spellbound]

Hows this??

[Bateryman1970]

That’s a lot better

Now I can see the reflection in the water I want to see it closer as I think this would add to the picture even more

Will the quality of the picture allow you to focus in even more to have just a bit of the leaf on the top of the photo but the main focus being the 2 drops of water ???

so show the drop on the top of the leaf and the 2 underneath !

Any closer than this and it starts loosing its clarity.

[Bateryman1970]

There we go

I like this now

It has interest, the reflection, how the image is bent in the water

The detail on the leaf

Good shot and good post production

Pity on the quality beginning to go if you go closer, but this is fine 

Do you like it ?

Cheers

Yup.. sure do. I liked the original. Being a bit of a noob to photography I was glad I was able to capture this with my S3IS. Maybe as I become more familiar with PS there will be a possibility of tweaking the image a bit. Feel free to have a go if you like.

Thanks for the advice!
