Cool mix of these two objects. Good use of this technique. The crispness of the water droplet makes this image very interesting. Good work.

I don't mind the cross posting. Very interesting combination with beautiful colors. Like the waterdrop photo.

Not a good thing (the dropping), but at least you have a very nice memory now! Looked at this photo for a while and I see a cork, but I still don't have any idea what I'm really seeing. Just can't place it. Well done!

I like the details in the shot and how the water flows.
Good idea for a subject.

I like it. Colour burn and linear burn can create a very harsh looking image however I think the right amount of blending was used here.

Good macro here. The cork came out nicely and that water makes it all look abstract. I can't believe the water left a shadow. Sorry about the flash. I dropped mine the other day but it was attached to my camera with the sync cord so it kind of broke its fall and no damage occurred. Luck is me. First photo equipment I drop in 35 years.

So sorry to hear about the SB-600 :( This shot clearly has a lot more meaning with the title! Lots of interesting details here... like the underside of the faucet. I know I've ever really looked at mine that closely! Great textures in the cork too.

Originally posted by geoffb: Very cool look. The edges are quite defined compared to the original image, so I'm guessing you sharpened a fair bit. Nice!

Surprisingly, after blending I didn't do anything except merge, resize, and save to web. Blending is producing very unexpected results so far, but I imagine more practice makes results more predictable.
