Whoa Bill!! :eek: This is awesome. The sun reflection is great, as is the detail on the petal to the left of the water drop. Just excellent!

The sharp, deep DOF and the soft colors make this one for me - oh, yeah, and the sun too! Good work.

I need more thumbs for this one, Bill. This is exquisite. The sun star, the sharp details, and the touch of blue skies reflected in the LL of the drop are perfect. Definitely a winner in my book. :toast: :toast: :toast: :toast:

Bill...

What an incredible capture down to the 'sun star' on the waterdrop! The different hues of pink are so rich! This reminds me of a pink ruby! Now I can see the benefits of using a tripod :wink:

Oh, Bill, the colors, the abstraction, what you did with the water, the repeating design in the leaves! Just marvelous. This is just about over the top for me. :jump: :toast:

Unreal, Bill. This is a spectacular image. I'm glad I looked at the EP selection area, congratulations too on the pick, and saw your fine work posted here. Very nice job.

Bill,

This is a great shot.

The water is crystal clear; the sun's reflection is beautiful, and the cabbage leaves so soft.

I'm envious.
