Pretty, but lacks sense thematically -- why some droplets and not the others?

Was your camera even set to macro?
It's hard to make out alot of the detail, but this image looks like an art within itself. I really like it.

This is interesting and a little strange at the same time. First, it's a very nice composition. I wish the rose 'bud' center area had a little more DOF and focus. As for the strange part...it seems weird to see beads of water in color on a B/W image. JMO of course. Maybe if it was a red rose initially instead of an orange/yellow one? Nice effort on isolating the selected drops in a seamless manner. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

BTW - Commenting only, no vote. :)

Very pretty but the fact that just those drops are colored bothers me. Why just those?

beautiful picture... it just seems a little unbalanced with the few droplets you did... just my opinion.. very pretty though

Finally a flower pic with a different take. Would have been nice to see more of the drops colored.
