Beautiful Shot! By the way did you ever live in Buffalo, NY?

Thanks for the question. You need to realize that the image you are seeing in the drop is coming from the other side of the drop, not the side the camera is on. The water acts like a lens in that you are looking through the drop, but at an upside down image of what' son the other side of the drop. What you are seeing is an upside down view of the wall and faucet, along with the flower that I placed against the faucet. The drop doesn't reflect anything from the side of the camera.

Great Shot Mike.
I wonder where did the reflection of the Camera has gone?
