Default flower in a waterdroplet

IMG_1950_edited-1
I've been working on water droplets with a reflection in the droplet for the last little while and this is what I have captured so far. Please let me know what you think. If you have any advice or suggestions on how to make it better, ie cropping, reflection, ps. It would be greatly appreciated.

That looks like perfection to me. Why would you want to chage anything? It's absolutely gorgeous.

How long did it take to set this shot up. Did you have to try the droplets at different distances to get the entire flower in the droplet? Love the shot!
