[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The simplest way to form a drop is to allow liquid to flow slowly from the lower end of a vertical tube of small diameter. When the pendant drop exceeds a certain size it is no longer stable and detaches itself. Drops may also be formed by the condensation of a supercooled vapor or by atomization of a larger mass of liquid.

Optics
Due to the different refractive index of water and air, refraction and reflection occur on the surfaces of raindrops, leading to rainbow formation.


Sound
The major source of sound when a droplet hits a liquid surface is the resonance of excited bubbles trapped underwater. These oscillating bubbles are responsible for most liquid sounds, such as running water or splashes, as they actually consist of many drop-liquid collisions.

selam joe, wow an excellent shot and very good composition of this drops nice pov and bg with splendid colours. Well done ! Regards ridvan

You have been shooting pictures, or something, with Psilocybe eh? From what "they" tell me it enhances the shot like a special filter. Very well done Joey. It is a keen idea and one that is fun to play with. The notes are almost an eclectic side effect and inform on an indirect subject. You're too cool.
