Art is the perception of the creator. Meaning is the perception of the viewer. acceptance is the perception of society.

This is one of the most incredible photographs I have ever seen. It is exceedingly good. The way you caught the entire refraction in each drop, and the way that it's only perfectly focused inside one of them, and turning it upside-down to show the image right-side up is great. This goes in my favorites. Great shot.

But words are things, and a small drop of ink, falling, like dew, upon a thought produces that which makes thousands, perhaps millions think and smile. Art is everywhere, except it has to pass through a creative mind.

I hold it true that thoughts are things; They're endowed with bodies, breath and wings: And that we send them forth to fill the world with good results, or ill. That which we call our secret thought speeds forth to earth's remotest spot, leaving it's blessings or it's woes like tracks behind it as it goes. We build our future, thought by thought for good or for ill, yet know it not. Yet so the universe was wrought . Thought is another name for fate. Choose then thy destiny and wait, for Love brings Love and Hate brings Hate. - Henry Van Dyke.

This photo just begs to be retried ... wait, that's not quite right ... begs to be investigated more. Hmm, a little better.

The point being ... to have a photo like this, only with the image reflected in the drop, or drops (which would be way way cool) be more observable. (At the 1600 X 1200 resolution, the detail is still quite good on the reflected image in the drops.)

Bigger, ya know?

The idea you had here alone is incredible and the 'execution' after the fact ... or maybe interpretation is better ... again, points back to give it another go ... please.

The image itself is still incredible. The originality quotient is through the roof on this one. You certainly have a gift.

Gorgeous! I agree with Les that you could easily go in closer with the drops to show the reflected landscape there but in no way take that as criticism of this image! It's amazingly good, I love it!
