I'm liking these Gareth, the b+w especially - bringing out the abstractness of the setup, concentrating on spheres, lines and tones.

Too much information, Gareth Turns out the banana plant actively repels water so my wife water sprayed it
Undeniably excellent captures, though

I have a liking for waterdrop-on-plant photos though they can be very hard to do - small item to focus on, potentially moving, and blown highlights due to any light source appearing in the drop(s).

Nice one Gareth... really like the subdued tones... dark vs light... and how you’ve been brave with shadows as well as the focus...

I concur with the others here: the capturing of the shadows is as well done as the light, and I especially like the fourth picture.
