I'm no photographer, so take everything I say with a grain of salt, but I'll do my best to give you some useful feedback here.

You have a real talent for the water droplet shots! I imagine it takes some real precision and patience to get them the way you'd like. The way that the water is just perched on the only open flower is very nice. I like where it's positioned as well, it's obviously the first thing I notice about the shot and my eyes travel down to the other buds.

The colors work together very well with that hint of green in the background. The background itself works because the little circular pattern really emphasizes the water droplet.

Now, I know positively nothing about Photoshop but did you add any effects to this after you took the photo? There's little blur streaks in a few places on the buds and I'm not sure if it's water, light, or an effect.

The only thing that I think detracts from this shot is the very foreground, the blurred parts of the flower, but like I said I'm not any kind of expert. Overall this is a very lovely shot!

Thanks for the critique.

Nope I didn't add any effects. I just messed about with the colours. What blurry bits? Do you mean on the bottom left hand corner?

Well then I'm even more impressed! I like photography to be close to the original photo

Yeah, the fuzzy part of the flower in the bottom left. I think it's just because the color is just as intense as the rest of the flower it kind of fights for the attention of my eye, does that make sense?

Oh, it's just where the camera automatically blurred it to make it out of focus, I didn't do it myself.

Yeah I see what you mean, I hadn't noticed it though.

It's alright, I think the shot is fantastic. I was just trying to give some tidbit that might help you improve because I couldn't find any major flaws

Great colors, really gorgeous photo.

This is so beautiful! I really love the lighting on this. I also have some weird fascination on close ups of water drops, so this is very cool to me
