Great shots all but I love the third one especially.

Fantastic shots Mike. 3rd one is good but slightly noisy around the orange bits. My favourite has to be the last one, but the 4th one is also excellent.

The mono pic could be poster sized and sold in Ikea.I'd buy one.

2 & 4 are the standouts for me.

I had a play with some dandelions the other day, but never though of spraying them with water. I may have to steal this idea Mike, if I get bored next week.

Excellent, love no. 3 with the little world contained within that droplet. The mono one is a fantastic 'abstract' too, great pp work.

#2 and #3 are nice images mike, a 1:1 crop will improve they're impact IMO.
