For me this doesn't really work (mind you it has introduced my to you PF) so it can't be all bad.
I am not sure what I am really looking at - I know its a water drop because of the title but wait a minute there are more and are they really drops or mini puddles (OK so it would sound stupid if you had called it mini puddles - but hope you take the point) - so its a macro of some sort of leaf and there are some interesting colours and textures in there - but its a little lost.
I also find the extra large watermark very distracting against what is a fairly delicate image.
Click for colours and textures and for the fact that I got to look at some of your other stuff and there as some real treats there.
Personally I think the watermark spoils the picture but it serves a purpose. As far as the title... I couldn't think of anything so just went with what snapped into my head.
When it comes to photography for me... it's very much organic and what feels right in the shooting and the editing of the picture. If some people loves it and it works for them, fantastic. If not, I'm good with that too.
Regardless, thanks for the click and critique Robert.
