I've always loved ireneM's photos, and never could seem to capture the quality image that she consistently achieves. This is my best attempt to date. I hope I do her proud! My goal on this one is to get at least one comment guessing it's her!
PP - opened Raw file in ACR. slight crop. cloned out a few dust spots. layer for curves, then a layer for gothic glow (to put more emphasis on drop area) at 30% opacity. USM. resize, USM again just for droplet, then added border. save for web.

Amazing photo, I wouldn't have a clue how to even attempt this type of shot but I can tell you have captured it perfectly. Vey well done and best of luck 10.
