    A fit of boredom

    One sometimes looses old skills, as with this droplet. Liking the colors though and will reshoot.

    William you better have some more of those boredom moments because with it you got the time to think and plan your shots. Simply beautiful drop upon drop shot.

    I like this. I must try it myself. I'm not sure what the droplet is resting on? But the reflection of the orchids(?) is very good. If you are reshooting it I'd try to get the drop nearer to the flowers in the bottom corner so the droplet takes up more of the frame. Was it a natural drop? Have you tried using glycerine or glycerine and water mix? Makes the drops thicker. Nice image.

    Rob...My base image is a wine glass, turned it upside down, parked in front of my monitor with an
    orchid image displayed, then filled it with glycerin until it overflowed.
    Was dissatisfied with the droplet so I suspended a syringe with a hanging droplet and very poorly
    moved/merged it onto my base image. Lesson learned...need to reshoot to do better.
