[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Well, It is not a normal H2O, it is not even a rain water, this is a 100% original dew water, gravitation resistant :).
You can see some landscape too, but you need to turn your head upside down to really see it :) or flip the photo.
I have already got a following advice "Get rid of the lens, too much distortion". :)
I wish the background was in different colour but wanted to keep it natural so just some cropping and contrast and noise reduction in the background.
Unfortunately I am not sure if sony close up 3,3x was used or not . I use it for 50% of macro shots but not sure if for this one it was actually on. Quite possible. This refers also to my previous macro shots.
Thanks for watching and sorry for boring note to such a plain foto.

Hello
Very nice picture. Nice composition and colours. I like this "landscape" that is seen in the dew drop. Well done.
Thanks for sharing and welcome at TrekNature

Original composición con una gota muy bien plasmada y excelente el detalle de la hoja de la gramínea. Buen formato de presentación pero un encuadre no muy conseguido a mi gusto, quizás mejor menos espacio a la derecha y más a la izquierda. De todas formas una bonita y diferente toma.

Hey Mark,
unusual photo but very refreshing, as Arjun said! Like the landscape in the drop of water!
Regards
Ena

Hello Mark,

How nice to see that you are continuing to post exceptional photographs!

I like the strong composition here! The dew drop, with its enclosed picture, looks like a fortune-tellers crystal ball! I also like how it is making a shadow on the blade of grass.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Bonjour Mark,

Jolie cette goutte d'eau sur le point de tomber !

Hello mark !
Another very beautiful picture from you ! Ilike the beautiful reflection in the water drop, we can seven see the blue sky ! Composition, POV and blurred BG are wonderful too. Very well done !
Valerie.
