Description

This is an extreme close-up of a Violet. The dew-drops are courtesy of me spray-spitting water on them. Just pretend that the water didn't come from my mouth and this picture may become more pleasurable to view.

Hope you brushed your teeth before... okay, I can't pretend you didn't spit on this flower, still it's better than the flies in your previous flower-shot... :D This is a beautiful macro work, lovely colors and detail, and... the dew-drops :)))
