Straight up Macro shot, no Crop or Photoshop work. Halogen light on the back drop area to create the back light look, also use a spray bottle to create the water droplet, make it easier to focus and create more dof and texture on the petal, this is a super close up with 4x conversion lens. Flash used as well.
