Flavio, what a lovely creative way of showing a water drop. That reflection is awesome mate. This is a wonderful piece of work. Well Done.

Dave.

Flavio, Flavio, Flavio...

Anytime i berate my camera for a bad shot, i should have a loot at this.

This is just wonderful.. words dont do it justice.. beautiful symmetry, and the reflection in the drop is so crisp..

Also, did u do any PP to get the accentuated glint off the reflection..

This time I got lucky with the sun flare. The reflection of the plant from the background and the sky within the drop were there also from the beggining. The only thing I PP'ed is the dark red base/top which in the original was more in the dark side..
This is actually a drop of nectar falling from a red upside down red cap in a home made birdfeeder meant for hummingbirds. Unfortunately the hummingbirds don't know about it, yet.
Thank so much for your kind words!
