Somehow fascinating simlicity - could even work as a comercial picture for a tea brand or a body lotion - great color saturation- A pitty that the leaf is not perfectly sharp and a ring flash might have helped to freeze the falling drop (hey - I only say this, because I just ordered one and somehow have to explain my friends why I spend again money for my equipment )

The idea is excellent, Sophs. Technically it could be better with greater sharness where it matters. Focusing is so critical with macro: very little margin for error. You could also crop it square to get rid of the stuff either side.

Keep snapping!
Best wishes,

Missed this, a very nice shot, gives a calming and tranquil feeling, must be the green which is known as a calming colour.
