Bedazzled (Explored)

Taken for assignment52-092012 - oil on water

I used Canola oil and water in a drinking glass placed over some iridescent blue glass beads (the kind you put in vases). I thought the sparkle effect of the beads in the slightly out of focus drops of oil was an interesting effect.

An interesting side note - the glass is basically flat sided, so squarish in shape rather that circular. I noticed that many of the droplets were squarish in shape as well.... I wasn't expecting that.
