Clever idea -- other options for the central orb might be a pearl or a completely clear glass marble ("crystal ball").

I was actually hoping for a shallower DOF, with just the center tip "tack-sharp" as it were, and everything else just a blur (through the tears, perhaps). Alas, my little P&S doesn't have quite that much control.

Sorry if I made anyone feel sick, but it's good to know the photo was effective enough to elicit a response of some kind -- thanks everyone!
