Raindrop

[Paul Lagasi]

After seeing all the images with water drops, I got an idea...the results are below.
Lighting effects, distortion and colored were applied.

Thanks for looking

Nice image and application, Paul.

Interesting idea and execution.

Paul, this is really cool - I'm not sure how you did it but I like it!

This is excellent, Paul! I like the idea. The lighting and the flares really add to the image. The details on the water looks great. I am wondering if rotating the water drop would make sense to align it with natural gravity. Excellent work!

Paul, Definitely a different take on the mini-worlds! Cool idea and you did a great job w/ the processing!

I love how the bird and it's bill bend and cause my eye to flow around the raindrop and end up in the middle! That tiny blue center dot is important. The lighting and flares really add to the feeling that this is a mini-world floating in space .

Paul, this is wild and I love it. I haven't seen anyone use lens flare in a while - it's one of my favorite effects in PS! Love the world inside the drop!
