great shot. Reply »

Very cool. Love the pattern and exposure etc. Good idea to make it vertical, but did you try it the other way around so it looked like it was kind of expanding into the air? Just a thought. Reply »

Oh you guys are so kind, love all the comments. Gives me confidence that I need =)
And yes I have tried it up side down, but then you have light on the bottom of the pic. and then darkness on top, and I thought that looked depressing, if that makes sense. Reply »

Water Drops?!? seriously?....but yes...well done, just kidding...wonderful, colorful, well done image....Good luck author Reply »

Intriguing, original, and of-course out of the box. GL, author Reply »

very well done, I first thought they were cupcakes. Reply »

Thank you guys, and yes seriously! lol. I was going for something more unusual, but I know it's not super original either. Reply »

Beautiful choice and perfectly executed. I have to put it on my list of techniques to learn which just got longer. Well done author. Reply »

Very cool. Did you check it out with just a little closer crop (not too much though) Reply »

I agree the water drops do work here even though I feel that the colors are a bit dull, something that a bit of playing with the contrast and vibrance can cure. Think the entry will get better from it. Reply »

I have already cropped it, and adjusted contrast to bring out the colors. I'm afraid I can't do anything else with this shot. Thanks for kind comments, and tips. Reply »

You've taken the technique and really done a wonderful job of making it fresh and interesting. I think you've done a terrific job with this entry. Reply »

Thank you MossyB, all the wonderful comments really make a difference to me. Reply »
