Shot indoors, using tripod, timer release, black velvet, a white reflector and a 150 watt halogen lamp hand held in just the right position so that it doesn't show up in the droplet. I wanted as clean a shot as possible whilst trying to capture the flower itself reflected in the droplet.

Hope someone out there approves Wink

Very clever Mike, Now, Here is a challenge for me, at least, perhaps for others!

How does the 7000 compare to the 300?
