This ia a beautiful image. The brilliance of the drops is stunning. I think it would be better if left in it's original orientation.

The dimensional quality is fabulous, something not typically seen in web/dew shots. Detail and as David mentioned the brillance is sensational. Awesome image Doug!

How much of the frame is this image?

Really nice one Doug. Nice job getting the landscape in the drops high enough to not split it in half. I also like the "starburst" on the drops.

Doug: Congrats on the EP - well deserved. Did you flip this vertically? I would expect the images in the drops to be inverted. >-))>

Wow. The mirrored details of the landscape are stunning. The little stars are a nice side effect as well!

Amazing work!
