Thanks guys! I took the photo yesterday, just after a torrential downpour. As soon as the rain stopped falling I was out the door and taking photos of different roses, trying to catch good water drop photos.

Here's another rose I captured:



It kind of reminds me of a prop on an outboard motor.

Truely you have presented nature's creativity quite impressively.
Every thing is just perfect, light and capture!!!
Check out mine, just tried something but unable to reach upto your level...

Thank you Krist3Grant! I lucked out big time on this photo. Everything came together quite nicely.

Your photo is very Pretty too! Sometimes a little perspective change like getting down to the level of the flower or a little lower will make all the difference in the world when it comes to photo time. Also, play around with different camera settings. F stop and shutter speeds can drastically change what a photo will look like. Also, don't be afraid to really get in close to the subject! I was within inches of the roses in my photos.

I have been taking photos for a great many years and I also was mentored by two Top Notch Professional Photographers, so I definitely have a Huge advantage over most people.

Try, Try, Try and Experiment! That's what it all comes down to in photography!
