I had to wait all week for it to rain so this had to be a rush job to get it submitted. Very simple; a rain drop on a leaf of an orange tree.

The stem in the background really adds a lot to this picture...interest and a sense of structure. Nicely done.

The leaf should take up more space in the top. There's way too much dead space at the bottom left.

Oh my god, you missed the focus. Better luck next time.

Poor DOF, and lacks focus

Needs to be sharper

I don't know if this is out of focus or if a soft focus filter was used, but I would have liked it better if something was well focused, either the rim of the leaf or the drop of water.
Looks like a soft focus filter.

Nice composition, but slightly overexposed and insufficient DOF (drop isn't sharp).

Like the composition a lot. It's a shame it didn't come out as sharp as you'd hoped. Do you know about having to sharpen after you reduce it to 640x

Concept is good, but the shot is a bit fuzzy. A sharper image would have yielded a higher score.

This would rock if the focus was a touch better.

Good composition. Would be a great shot if the drop was sharp.

out of focus

Not very sharp. Also, I find the composition (with coming and going lines and the leaf proeminent at the top) a bit unbalanced.

Very nice but nothing seems to be in focus to draw my attention
