Dew Drops

This was tough.....the demsel was immobile because of the dew and cold, and its was quite a bit of low light.

The raynox did a good job..but I had a tough time bring up the brightness due to noise...

I really like this Balan. Those perfectly round dew drops on the tip of the eye are so colorful. I love the green colors. Your DOF is perfect, making it barely possible to discover the damselfly. This is so unique and fascinating.

Or maybe "Eye Drops"! Wow! what a great up close shot. The noise looks fine (although it's hard to really tell without a large view). My one thought would be to blur the sharp bit of stem to further concentrate the viewer's eyes on that way cool eye.

Wow, what a macro shot this is, Balan! I like the detail in the eyes as well as the drops, or as Mark pointed out, "eye drops". So nice done.
