Crystal ball gazing

"As I gaze into my crystal ball, the future is not clear.....

 

but if your lucky number is seven, then you may have a great year"!

 

When I took this shot, the droplet was so tiny that even in the viewfinder, I didn't notice this number 7 staring back at me. All I saw was the camera focus locking on to the surface detail. The depth of field here was so shallow that even on this tiny 2mm drop, I could choose between the surface reflection, or the detail in the refraction!

 

The apparent number seven here is actually the outline created by my roofline and the top of the back fence.

 

Taken with my Sony RX10 at almost 480mm equivalent combined with the Nisi close up lens.

 

Boosted and tilted for Slider Sunday. HSS!
