This is wonderful Annie. I love the colors and the little droplets. You caught them just at the right time. Your post processing work is simply lovely.

Lovely, Annie. Is this an Azalea bush or a Rhododendron? You have been rewarded by your efforts to drop your trowel and pick up your camera with this one. Your camera settings and your edits have given us, your viewers a photo to view and study. I marvel at your talents with your tools..... camera, computer and garden! Your gardens will be alive and well in the spring thanks to your TLC. Thanks for sharing. ~B

Comment from Andrew Tsai


What an interesting photo! The beads of water strung along the leafs are so organized. The hydrophobic wax is always such an interesting medium to work with after rainfall or condensation from frost. I love the colors, the red really pops out from the green. The lighting is also soft and emphasizes the delicacy of the leaves. The depth of field is wonderful. I am curious to see what the image looked like without the oil painting filter. I really like this picture!

How very delicate this is. Overall initial impact is wonderful. The droplets of water on the plant is truly remarkable. One great shot. I love the slightly blurred background. Fabulous work..

Holy magic leaf with water droplets Mia Cara Annie!
This is simply Stunning! What makes it special is the way you created a soft layered background of the leaves.
Your lighting and focus are both superb.
I love the simplicity laced with your Expert work in the digital darkroom.
You continue to surprise and impress me with your artistry.
Beautiful work Cara!
Sokkene Av! :)

Awesome picture. Love the position of the plant in the frame and the use of the soft focus in the background. I love doing these types of shots and the water drops look like jewels placed on the edges. Great focus.

This is unusual and interesting n more than one way. How those reflecting water drops are placed on the leaves is something by itself but how you layered the background with overlapping plants and drops which go softer toward the outside and the back is extraordinary. I love how the vivid color of the plant in front and the brilliance of the water drops is contradicted with the subdued colors in the background. I also can see that the original photo[s] were flawless. The placement of the red-brown plant as center of interest is perfect. The creation is excellently balanced and framed.

Creative and very beautiful mixed media post. The wonderful freshness of the moisture lining the leaves is finely focus and has a great diamond like sparkle. The colors of your focal point are vibrant and are supported perfectly by the softened background. Fabulous eye for the post work. Thanks for sharing.
