I think the quality of the image is very impressive, the contrast is intense enough and the colour scheme is very appealing. My only (very subjective) comment might be on the composition... it seems to me that the photo could be cropped on the right side closer to the largest water droplets. This would make the eye follow that very sexy curve with the big droplets on it more easily...it wouldn't have to work with that straight line of the grass blade to the right.

I love the composition and I love the colors.

The only thing I would change is that I would like to see all of the water droplets in focus, not just the ones in the center. To me it looks like the leaf/blade of grass is completely perpendicular to the camera lens, so I'm puzzled as to why the entire subject isn't in focus.

I don't mean to sound stupid but how do I see the image?

I can see it now, it wasn't there before for some reason. Great photo, all these macro shots are inspiring me now.
