SATURDAY SELF-CHALLENGE
13 OCTOBER 2018
WATER DROPLETS
TAKE A PHOTO OF WATER DROPLETS IN ANY FORM, SHOOT MACRO OR OTHERWISE. POST PROCESS AS MUCH AS YOU LIKE. GET CREATIVE AND HAVE FUN!

Each time I thought of tackling this week's challenge there wasn't a single drop of rain about!!

In desperation I asked Helen to pick up a water spray bottle for me :-) I have been spraying everything in sight but whenever I did get some droplets to form they disappeared just as quickly!!

I then tried a blue coloured blank DVD, put it on the windowsill in the sun. Probably was a bit heavy handed with the spray but, at least, I got some droplets :-)) I should have fished out my DSLR but time was getting short so I used the 'Macro' setting on my little P7800 :-)

Also, I have added this to 'Sight and Sound' 'cos I've just noticed there is a 'starburst' in a few of the droplets. And, Rodney Crowell recorded "Stars on the Water".

Added to Sight and Sound : Pictures & Music

What a brilliant and creative image, Roger. I'm loving all the colors. My hat's off to you for your ingenuity. :)

I like the song although I was expecting it to be to the tune of "Smoke on the Water" before it started playing. ;-)

Love what you've done here Roger … such a colourful and dynamic abstract. :)

As for the droplets, I read that mixing a small amount of glycerine with the water can make it easier to position the drops and makes them less likely to running off if you need to move the subject. It's how I added the condensation onto this one:
