UndeterredIn travels that I've yet to plan
and plan, I never will,
down miles of unfamiliar trails
I'll venture on until

my feet should find a forest's edge
of twisted branch and root,
the shadow of its overgrowth
awaiting my pursuit.

And though the trees shall warn me,
"you will walk beside your fear;
for many braver than yourself
have lost their way in here"

my trembling hands will steady;
I'll accept the truths I've heard,
and if fate should bid I enter
I'll walk forward undeterred.

After the stormby ~RawPoetry

Contests / 2011 / Natural Colours

Of all the places I've been, sometimes it really is hard to beat the beauty I can find in my own front yard.

Anywho, the sun came out after a full week of rain today, which means I eagerly ran outside with my camera and stayed there for several hours. Good times.

All feedback and constructive criticism is very greatly appreciated!

first critique

Wow....when I saw this piece, I was utterly speechless. I personally LOVE photographing water-related things and this is by far one of the most amazing shots I have ever seen. I love how it focuses on the center of the clover and the near-perfection of the water droplets....beautiful. I also enjoy the delicate and relaxing "feel" this photo has. Photography of plants/rain/flowers ect. have that affect on me

All together, this is a gorgeous piece that should be featured everywhere

It's been an honor to have seen this pic and use my first critique on it

Keep up the amazing work

You have captured a really good moment in time.. the droplets - especially the one left of centre on the leaf - is incredible, so round and beautifully focused. The colours are serene and pleasing. The only issue I'd have (minor as it is) are the white outs on the leaves - I'd have zoomed in on the photo and clone tooled them out so they don't distract from the image.
That said, I really like the photo

It's titled "After The Storm" but apart from some rain on the leaves there's nothing visible to support that a storm had occurred and it could just be dew on the leaves - perhaps another title might be more apt.
I'd have been proud to have taken this image!!!
