 I may end up having some seriously weird fun with my reverse ring.

Condensation inside a plastic water bottle. I painted some red nail polish on the other side of the bottle. Painted some clear sparkly nail polish on the side facing the lens. Rested this against a lamp so the light was shining in. No tripod but I see where I am going to start needing to use one with while using the reverse ring.

Levels auto adjustment, some HSL saturation, resize, sharpen, noiseware.

I just thought it looks like the one blob in the middle has eyes and it's eating some of the other droplets. Weird, yeah, but I don't care lol.

Creative and different lookng shot. I can see that you are a bit bored LOL. I like the way the grey works with the drops in this shot. Keep shooting with the macro setup that you are using. A monopod works pretty well with a close up system if you want to take it for a walk.

I like weirdness, and yes, the droplet is, in fact, going to "eat" the other. Silvery colour and DOF suggestive.

Oh, yes. weird indeed. Keep 'em coming. Let's see. I see caspar the ghost and a whole bunch of petroglyphs, plus a super composition and nice colorations. Very inventive.
