Thanks, CJ, I was surprised too.

I love how the water looks so metallic and convex - quite an optical illusion! :-D CJ

Thanks Lydia for the comment and reminder about the size.

Sharp and clear (and oversized). Lovely, aam. ~Lydia

Good observation, Christakis. Went back and checked the original at full size and still there are no clear trees. However, you can see a hint of trees in the lower big drops, at least in at the original. If interested I can email you the big file (5.8 MB). Let me know.

I just caught my self going though all the water droplets one by one to find a circled one were the garden looks normal and clear. Well there is none but there are some good individual ones there. Very interesting aam.

Thanks Penny, Troy, and Tom. Tom, It's in normal orientation.

The water seems to be crawling up the window. Is the picy upside down? I like the effect. -tv

Very Good Detail. Make my monitor look like it's wet.

Thanks Mary Anne. Doug, the car wasn't actually "in" the garden but on the street where I planted some trees in front of the fence. Cheers for the comments, guys.

You parked your car in the garden? Now that's sacrifce. This is a good one Aam. I like how the water is super sharp and how the glow almost makes it look like mercury. -Doug

Nice capture of the water drops, Aam. They look almost metallic and other-worldly.
