nice ^^

Focus is on droplets and not on grass...

lovely picture

Very nice shot, but I agree with arbroono

I don't want to argue with you. IMO the grass is definietly in focus in the middle. But I always appreciate all your comments.

Regardless of focus, this picture is among the best in this contest. Very clean.

Beautiful image, arguably off theme, but still lovely.

great shot of the drops of water, but the grass doesnt seem to be the subject, just the carrier.

Since the contest title is "grass" I thought that photographing a leaves of grass is a smart thing to do. How stupid and naive was that? Perhaps I should have photographed a soviet submarine. That would certainly suit the theme much better. Please excuse my sarcasm, I couldn't help it.

Okay author... if the theme was on submarines and all you shot was water and a small tip of the periscope showing.... is that on theme.... kinda maybe i will grant you but....

now with that said, it is a very good shot. if you had all three drops and more of the grass in focus, then i would say you had a winner. I love macro and this has/had potential

As an after thought cuz i really do like this... can you crop it so that the drops are more off to the side instead of dead center? Try it and see what you think... if you like it that way just replace this one. I will hold vote until then. Good luck .

I think captgeo may have a good idea there about the cropping.

i see grass. with water on it. but grass none the less. and an amazing picture of water on the blade of grass. the texture on the blade and all. Good luck to you!

No change..... but i still like it!!! Got my vote

Congrats for your first place, Mogrim!

beautiful dof......gl

Congrats on your 2nd

Congrats for the 2nd. place!

nice capture! very sharp.

Very cool, its just a little Garter snake isnt it? Somehow the picture make it look so much bigger. Great Job

You know, we learn at school the differences between venomous snakes and non-venomous ones. The eyes, head shape, tale shape, fangs... But I don't wanna know, if I face one of them, I'll run quickly!

This is really beautiful, Love the DOF

Great shot well done, really like the composition

excellent shot.. love the snake..

This is one of my favorites too. While shooting, I knew it was only a garter snake, but the closer I got, the less sure I was that it was non-venomous. Thanks for your comments.

haha.. good experience then..

excellent shot!

amazing shot!

Another awesome shot.......gl to you!!
