Could someone help me figure out how this effect was accomplished? Is it shot on a clear piece of glass?
//www.dpcprints.com/print.php?IMAGE_ID=60800
I'm dying to try it, but have no clue... please help!
thanks,
Deanna

| I think you're right, it's little drops on a piece of flat glass. The glass is probably placed at some distance from the background smileys, and each drop acts like a little positive (!) lens. With a focal length much shorter than the distance to the smileys, the little drop-lenses will mirror the image in both directions, effectively turning the smileys to their smiley side :) |

| Thanks for finding those descriptions for me! I did try, but failed. This is probably too complicated for me, but I will give it a try this weekend. |

you actually probably call it 'water drop refractions' instead of reflections.
