    What an honor to receive such high recognition as this when having so many great photographers on board. A great motivator to keep trying to improve upon ones skills!

    Thanks a ton!

This is a truly pretty plant Allan, and the pink colors indeed stand out well against the rainy softened background. I especially like how well we can see all the small droplets on the plant, and that it is actually easy to see that it is raining.

The photo is really sharp and it is indeed clear and well defined details to be seen in every part of the plant, and the exposure is spot on.

I also like the format you have cropped the photo into, and the plant has got a fine placement within the frame. A truly beautiful and well taken photo with an excellent DOF, and I wish you luck with the contest.

    Thanks so much Annie for your wonderful review of this image and the high rating. I don't normally like shooting in the rain for fear of equipment damage, but I could not resist on this shot.

    You are more than welcome Allan. I don't take photos when it is raining either, but I am glad you did this time.

very cool. the clarity is great. the capture of the light is great. the angle of the shot of this colorful flower and water droplets is great. the image is balance and eye appealing to the viewer. good eye and great job overall.

I'm glad that you ignored the downpour and continued shooting too,Allan!
Your photograph of this attractive Spider Plant getting a good 'dousing' looks great! : )
