This is a sweet shot. The even size and spacing of the droplets and the angular lines make the image for me. The fly is a bonus. B&W is the right thing for this high contrast to look great too.
Well, I gave this a 9...this is without a doubt and outstanding image and the best in your portfolio...I actually like the shapes and light and dark in the background
to me, it's the best of the "web shots" i've seen recently. great definition of the geometric design, and the dof ratio really makes it stand out. nice photo!
A very cool image with the drops of water on the web but it looks oversharpened. There is a lot of noise in the background as well. Neat image/noise ninja might help.
