“They both listened silently to the water, which to them was not just water, but the voice of life, the voice of Being, the voice of perpetual Becoming.”
― Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha
OK, everyone seems to be doing the "drop-splash" photo these days. Here is my take on the theme.
Apart from localised levels adjustment, there was very little photoshop post production. The drop was photographed with a print of a diver (my wife, Jo) behind the splash zone, with the drop itself acting as a fisheye lens. The motion was frozen by using a flash (with homemade snoot) pointing at the diver print.

beeing on a vacancy in southtyrol for almost two weeks I could not copy with all my flickr activities. Coming home I found this theme and it matched perfectly to a photo that I took right before we left home. Beeing in the mountains dropletts were not my primary goal, sorry
Ok, guess the fever got me too...:-)
Still have to play with the light and liquids and drop rate, but it's a lot of fun already...
--many thanks for your interest--
A tear drop holds so many things,
It holds our joy,
It holds our love,
It holds our loss.
A tear drop must be placed in context,
Of its self it is a simple thing,
Salty water from our eyes.
We weep when overcome with happiness,
We cry when overwhelmed by sorrow.
We ball when crushed by emotions,
We shed a tear when lifted by pride.
A tear drop is so powerful a thing,
A manifestation of extreme emotion.
A tear drop captures humanity.

I found a Kaleidoscope app and used an old photo of mine to make a design. Then using the pen too I made selection and used drop shadow placing some above and some below the original image
