Interesting image, and I too would like some perspective to know how big the drop is.

Interesting perspective that I hadn't considered - for me, the droplet itself offers a clue to the scale of the image. The radius of curvature caused by the surface tension places a limit on its size.

With the natural magnification going on with the water drop being added to the macro lens, this is almost microscope stuff. Great work.
