 Hmm, yeah so I suspect this might be the "Water droplet Challenge" but here goes. Messing around with a feather and some water to get this, came out ok I think but couldn't quite get what I was after.

Feather was a bit plain and not in great condition so went with the light duotone look to pick up more of the texture.

Great shot. I really like the effect of the water lens magnifying the ribs of the feather. Nice control of the focus point. I like your decision to keep the larger droplet in the background in focus and let the small irregular droplet in the foreground go out of focus.

I thought of doing something similar but was too lazy. I like how you made the one on the left look like a paperweight. Nice tones.
