I love this photo. Great capture of the reflection inside the water droplet. Very nice! Welcome to VB :)

Location
I took this photo in my garden, in Wales. As I am a self taught photographer I was ecstatic to see the results.Time
This picture was captured around 5 in the afternoon.Lighting
Whilst I did not do anything to alter the lighting, I believe as a result of it being a bright day the water droplet stood out more than it would have if it had been dull.Equipment
This was shot with a Nikon COOLPIX P90, but I did not use a tripod, flash or any other equipment.Inspiration
I was not inspired by anything to take this photo, however, I had been wanting to take pictures of nature in the rain for a while.Editing
I did not have to do much to this photo but I did increase the contrast to make the raindrop stand out more.In my camera bag
I don't have much equipment so when going to take photos all I usually have on me is my Nikon camera.Feedback
If trying to take a similar photo I would go outside just after it has been raining, on a day with no wind so that the water droplets aren't blown away before you can take the picture. Also, it can be very difficult to find a water droplet with an interesting reflection so you need patience and to be observant.
