 A peace offering (ok, a bribe...) for IreneM {grin}

So... I am concerned that this will get voted down because I am focusing on the drop rather than Woody, but we'll see.

I also was pretty unsuccessful with my drop shapes - I couldn't get two splashes to collide to get those cool umbrella shapes. I want to try this again where I am just focusing on the drop itself rather than anything else, but that is a challenge for another day.

convert from RAW, curves, slight desat to get rid of the green cast from the curves adjustment (probably not enough?), noise reduction, resize.

This is very nice! Looks like the offering is about to jump out of the bowl.

Great capture! Shame about the overall greenish blue cast though

I knew someone would get a waterdrop shot in. From the looks of woody's hands, it took a few tries. :) Well done! Very Irene-esque.
