I thought this shot was brilliant. Using the sun to backlight and produce the halos around the fruit, and still getting the right amount of light on the subject, wow. And then to get it all sharp, nice job.

Very nice. The water might be more distraction than addition on this one. It morphs the roundneess of the tomato into a oblong shape.

The sun is very distracting, catching it just behind the tomatoes would have been a nice capture.

Very nice. I like so many different things about your photo. The water droplets, the sun shining on the vine hairs and the way you composed the sun bursting through the one bunch. This would have been great for that new sun challenge. Lol. Best of luck in the challenge. One of my favorites so far.

I am sorry, it is a little blinding with the sun in the shot.

good concept, but DOF is too shallow here, would have been great if the fine hair on the twig had been in focus
