Challenge: Best of 2011 (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Canon EOS-60D
Lens: Canon EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS
Location: Calgary
Date: Dec 29, 2011
Aperture: 5.6
ISO: 5000
Shutter: 1/1000
Date Uploaded: Jan 29, 2012

 I got my camera and start getting into photography in late December. So, this is the only picture I have to submit so far.
ISO was way too high so i had to use quite a lot of noise reduction and I also probably over-saturated that one in post production. Also not the most original droplet!
Looking forward to reading your critics.

I have never been successful at shooting water droplets. Great effort on your part!!

Definitely different than most droplet shots.

Wonderful clarity and colours.

(Participant so not voting.)

I can not do this, not in a million years. Nor do I have an inkling of a need to do it. Yes it is pretty, yes it is sharp and colorful. So what, it is after all just another water drop. Perfect in every respect and even worthy of a good score. Sorry for my honesty, drops just do not do 'it' for me.

A good first attempt. Just needs to be a bit sharper (in my estimation, anyway).

A gorgeous interplay of colors and light. The water on the left portion of the image is silky smooth and the slight angel to the drop adds to the quirky nature of the image. The water droplets in the background of the image look like confetti. Looks like a party!

Well captured but I think I've seen this way too many times. Nonetheless, I think I'll have to try it one day. :)

yeah, like we need more of that! lol. gl.

good try, but a bit too busy color-wise for me.
 02/14/2012 01:09:22 PM
needs to be a bit sharper, but the colors are fantastic.

You did it! Now go outside and photograph a stranger. ;)

Very good for a first attempt, the colours are a bit strong for me personally (saturation looks too high) but you caught the droplet in very clear focus, well done.
