 Eyedropper + Water + Inverted map of the world.

Been wanting to execute this for a while. Got tired of waiting for a more appropriate theme.

I realize that drops have been done to death, but I've not found an image quite like this in all my searching of this site. I'm sure it's been done elsewhere, but have not seen it on here.

Not a lot of processing, other than to increase darkness of blue and contrast in general. Been having trouble balancing color on my monitor. Hope it doesn't lousy on yours!

(Wish it were advanced editing that I could have fixed that tiny droplet of water on the end of the dropper)
