Just beautiful! I especially love the tomato plant leaf.

Thanks. My favorite is the "raindrops on roses". In fact, it's "one of my favorite things. . ." :)
I can't believe how round they are!

Well done with close up photography.

I too like the rain drops, especially. Surface tension is what keeps them round. I think.

The raindrops on the rose petal almost look like something out of one of my medical textbooks. =D
