This is great! The name is good, the back/foreground relationship is good, the dewdrops are good... I could go on and on!

the water distracts from the flower's color, but quite nice

6 - Wow. Bright. Good detail in the water drops. Perhaps a more finely tuned crop, trying to eliminate the OOF area(s) especially on the right may have given this a little extra in my opinion. As well as reduced the green. Difficult, but seems slightly 'too bright' in some of the areas, though not sure.

Could use a little darkening - center feels blown. Also, nearest edges are more blurred than I would prefer. 6
