A trick of the light. Two pieces of coloured card were placed against the wall, camera set on a tripod and the glass moved back an forth until the water refracted the colours in the viewfinder.
Refraction tabletop photography, window light used a Yashica AF 35-70 Macro lens with a Fotodiox Pro Nikon converter. Glass stopper and colored glass bead necklace, NO selective desaturation.
Half-full glass of water, in front of a black and white backgroud in which the refraction produces the result of the image.
This was a tedious shoot, and it taught me how to be very patient and zen 😁. The water droplets were carefully placed on a piece of thread and it was photo-stacked to make sure all the droplets were as sharp as possible. Over all it was a fun experiment! The setup shot is in the description below.
Have a great new week my friends!

This really belongs to the series just posted. But I decided to let it find it's own way.
There is a rather lengthy description www.flickr.com/photos/algo/902941418/
The drop is just about to drip -- I suppose it thinks it is becoming two drops, and so refracts the single flower twice. ( farm2.static.flickr.com/1074/902941398_ebf41af630.jpg )
Pays off Viewed On Black and may be worth Viewing Large On Black
This is a close-up photo of light refracting through ripples in the current of a stream flowing across Clam Harbour Beach. The image had been copied and mirrored twice to create this mandala design. The details are best seen full screen.
This is my first photo series here on Flickr. Welcome to the "Theatre of Glass".
I will be uploading more to this collection as time goes on.
All comments welcome and thank you in advance :)
I've rarely seen a rainbow when flying. My paraglider shadow can be seen on the sandstone cliffs.

Ever since I caught a refraction of a sun pillar, I've been wanting to photograph a refraction of sunbeams. So when some appeared from this break in the clouds, I rushed to take some pics. They soon went, and I think I prefer the later one, without sunbeams, shown below. (Sorry -- it is occasionally not available -- not sure why.)

'refraction sunbeams' On Black: See your photos in a new light
Imagine walking alone on a pristine black sand beach as the sun starts to color the horizon. Then start to smile as the morning sunlight effervescently sparkles off of countless faceted chunks of ice sprawled on the shore.
Welcome to Iceland's well-named Diamond Beach. I spent a glorious but hectic half-hour there last month running between orbs of ice with my tripod looking like a crazed sandpiper...and had a blast!
This shot is a 5 stop HDR which allowed me to capture the wicked dynamic range without losing the wonderful lines of retreating surf.
Cheers!
