[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I shot these droplets hanging from a clothes-line on a wet monsoon day in Shimla, Himachal Pradesh.
The setting is not artificial; after a heavy shower, water drops hang on to such places before dripping down. There were hundreds of them on a single clothes-line. However, I had to focus on only a few, so this is a macro of about 7 to 8 of them.
The image has not with tampered with much in the PS except for a little saturation enhancement and sharpening.

Hello Ram!
Very nice capture.Well seen and composed.I liked
POV,details and framing very much.
Thanks for sharing.

Very good picture, Ram.
Eye catching composition, appealing to my emotions. It draws me right into the situation. I love the beautiful dark colours of rain, the perfect focus on the drop in the center, the soft but recognizable background that is well set off from the drops but shows enough details to make me realize the whole situation.
Thank you for sharing! Best wishes,
Peter

perfect sharp, great!

I feel this photo is more suited for TrekLens. I don't see the nature aspect.

I think nature could have been revealed more if the picture showcased the one drop with the inverted image. It makes one want to get a magnifying glass to see what is reflected in that drop.

Hi Ram,
excellent, I love your drops, they are phantastic and with a pretty reflection inside.
I also have a drop here today ;-) You know I love to make drop-shots - call my crazy, haha.
Thanks for sharing, bye bye

Hi Ram, and don`t the droplets seem to act as windows with all the reflected info in them, nice shot.
