Absolutely beautiful! The rich green colors are lovely, and the unique POV and shallow DOF is awesome. Fantastic shot.

there's something i really like about this.the focus isn't very crisp and the coloration in the background near the subject gives what you've photographed a sort of fuzzy nebulosity, if that's a word.

7 - Oh, very nice. Very nice color. Criticism; difficult, as no idea what this is (will be back PC to see), but a little more detail/sharpness in whatever it is, 'somewhere' (even just the drops), may have made this even better in my opinion. Good use of DOF coupled with the unusual drops/patterns on the plant(?) to create an unusual abstract. Maybe a little more height, especially for 'here', not sure. edit:typo
