This one is from the same series as my "Entropy" photo.
A glass of water, blue background, stirred the water with a spoon and took a shot. The result is 180 deg. rotated.
Strobist info: Sony F42 camera right, shooting diagonal through blue plastic background. Triggered by camera commander flash.

Information extracted from Wikipedia:
Aqua is an 82-story mixed-use residential skyscraper in the Lakeshore East development in downtown Chicago, Illinois. Aqua was designed by Studio Gang Architects, led by firm principal and founder, Jeanne Gang. To capture views of nearby landmarks for Aqua's residents, Gang stretched its balconies outward by as much as 12 ft (3.7 m). The result is a building composed of irregularly shaped concrete floor slabs which lend the facade an undulating, sculptural quality. Gang cites the striated limestone outcroppings that are a common topographic feature of the Great Lakes region as inspiration for these slabs.

In Greek we have a saying "every good thing, at some point ends". And that's what happened to my vacation as I am now back to "reality". At least I had wonderful time while I was visiting Aruba, a place that I have never been before. And even if it wasn't Greece, it felt like it a little. You see, in Greece many people have a tradition for their summer vacation: they pick an island and they visit it by exploring it and going to every beach it has. Aruba offered me that opportunity as it has many places to explore, lots of beautiful beaches and it's an extremely safe island overall. So if you are not a person that will just lay by the Resort's pool and have a drink, Aruba is your island. whether you explore it by making your own schedule or using a local guide, it's fun and lovely! I took this picture at the Baby beach, probably the most famous beach in the island outside the resorts area. It's a small bay, almost a lagoon, with shallow crystal clear water and very strong winds. So don't even try to set up your beach tent or umbrella. You are better off finding a divi-dive tree (called Watapana in the local Awawak language) and lay underneath it to get some shade and cool off.
Jose Padilla - Agua
The 1983 edition of the Carnival of Venice, one of the very first of modern times as it was reintroduced only in 1979.
Another from the heavy rain we had here in Berlin a few days back, this tiny drop was precariously hanging off a leaf end and luckily, there was a big enough patch of blue sky beginning to open up which to my delight gave me an aqua blue backdrop against the sky, now this is great quality rain, if there is such a thing, as the water drop was completely clear and transparent.
Again this is with my new toy the Raynox DCR-250 which I highly recommend, attached to the Nikkor VR1 55-200mm at full stretch.
I hope everyone is well, Friday tomorrow and so as always, thank you! :)
