More experimenting with water drops and reflections. Again, it took a lot of patience and time to get the reflections in focus and positioned in a good spot.

I knew this one would do well. that POW of hot pink and those two reflecting drops!! Nice going, Karen. I have yet to master this idea. Congrats on top 5.
Excellent technique here Karen. I am sorry I only gave you a 7 for this - i should have voted it higher but I am growing a bit jaded with the 'objects in droplets' shots - one of those effects of being around here a while. I need to remember that all these shots should be taken at face value and vote accordingly. However, this one is awesome and you have done this approach very well. The colors are rich and not overdone, the details delightful, and the multiple drops is just an added bonus. Good work.
I think you'd have been better off without the large drop on the right and just gone with one. Other than that, and this type of imagery being somewhat cliche-ish now at DPC, it's a fun photo and the bg color is great. Good luck!
wow, stunning capture. I know this has been done many times, but you've managed to find a nice angle and line of composition. the dark part in the left bottom corner is the only minor distraction.
Very nice....but very typical. I'm tired of the reflection in the water drop bit. So, no points for creative thinking but you get a 5 for composition and exposure. I don't like the dark hole at the bottom....doesn't fit with the light, airy feeling of the rest of the photo.
