Reflection in a raindrop Photo

Photographer’s Note

I thought about naming this one "After the rain 2", becouse I captured the shot the same day with my other photo here, the daisies,but I finally ended with this name, as the reflection in the raindrop is the main subject in it.
I have to admit that this whas a very difficult shot for me, as the reflection was very detailed and I was afraid it would not be as clear as i wanted. I took many shots from this, but i think the one that i have here is the best. I hope you like it!
I would please ask for your opinion and advise if there is any way to improve the shot and make the reflection look better. Thank you!

Nice shot Elena!

A good Macro shot, and very good subject- one droplet on a single blade of this plant.
Great color saturation, and composition.
My only suggestion is that you could have been just a touch closer, and I think it would have been a bit sharper.
Regardless, a lovely shot.
I look forward to seeing more of your work.

Cheers!

Good shot Elena, but you can go closer (depending on camera) or crop out the other part of the picture.

You didn't mention what camera you used so it's hard to dispose anymore opinion.

Cheers

Great shot, Elena. I know how tricky it can be to shoot a good Macro with the A80, but you've done quite well, although I think you could have got more sharp with a tripod. thanks for posting.
