 A handmade setup and lighting. The drop was maintained with the aid of a clothes peg. The eye-dropper was placed through a CD. Cropping some levels adjust to contrast the drop and some contrast enhacement to boost colors, and finally sharpen edges and a black border. All processing made with The Gimp 2.0

Good job. Lighting the eye dropper worked well. I can't make out what is being reflected, which is a bit distracting. Looks like a dry erase board?

Neat drop, but it looks like it's coming from an eyedropper, which ruins all the fun :) Since you were able to get so close, it would have been great to see something interesting in your inverted horizon as well.

I like the flares coming off the drop, it adds a nice interesting element. The colours in the background compliment the red well too.

The inverted view in the drop is ditractingly almost definable - whereas I think the strength of the image is in the colour, rather than that diffraction. Quite a neat shot.
