Bokeh Magic

I started out taking pictures of dandelions with water drops and look what I ended up with! Macro lens, ISO100, 100mm, f/3.5, 1/320sec.

Lightroom and Nik Color Effex Pro.

Thanks in advance for any comments or critiques.

I like the sense of exploding colors here, Kathy.  The few sharp drops and fiber strands add a good touch of reality and clarity.

Magical indeed!  I love it Kathy.  I've tried doing this technique without success.  Congratulations on a great image.
