Well you know how fascinated I am with drops so you'll also know I like them all.

I'm with you there eaglem... little ephemeral jewels that if not captured will never be seen again. We have a responsibility to give them a legacy.

Fascinating set of images. I really liked #3, 5, 6, and 8. Those miniature worlds in the eighth one really blew me away. Really good job.

Thanks slowpez.... I'm actually a little disappointed... some of the more spectacular scenes didn't turn out to be my most spectacular images....but hey.. what can you do?

The third image looks like an entrance to an otherworldly place. Like it a lot. That and the last one really stand out for me.

Thanks for commenting Dice. The third one has the seemingly random sharp and bokeh patterns in different planes... it's more abstract, but I think it's most interesting.

Very nice Norm! I've tried it a few times but never got anything like that! Love that last one too, very interesting stuff!

Regards!
