Venture a guess?
This is a lot more work than water drops where I can just sit on a stool behind the camera and push buttons. I have seen these before but with a different medium and perspective. It's kind of fun to have a mystery for a change. I'm still changing set-ups.

I was trying out some large drops and before I got all the settings down, this face came out of the drop.

Nothing is as it seems, you have to take a closer look with your heart.

Trying for something a little different with lighting. Needs a bit of work to get it right, but I'm happy for the first try. Two Speedlights, a 430 EXll and a 580 EXll set to 1/64th power, with red and blue gels, and positioned behind the pan of water. For the drop I used plain water with a bit of melted sugar to add some density to the water. I also keep the water in the refrigerator. Water is most dense at 4 degrees Celsius.
Sorry I haven't been around much. I've been pretty busy with family stuff and will be till after Christmas. I'll try to keep up here and there.
Not exactly in this order. They just fit best this way.
These are all done on black glass and colored with yellow food dye (most of them) and blue, red and green gels on the flash guns.

Kind of a scary pic. I sprayed a dead thistle like plant with dark red water and then positioned it in front of a striking yellow bunch of flowers. My goal was to fool the observer into thinking this was all one flower. I don't think that happened but the result is still pretty cool.
Tweaked the exposure in RAW editor. No Photoshop recoloring.
Exploring the micro cosmos with legendary Vivitar Series 1 90mm f/2.5 'Bokina'. The way this lens renders textures and transitions is truly unique, especially with these delicate petals of red Amaryllis Hippeastrum.
Camera: Panasonic Lumix S5 II
Lens: Vivitar Series 1 90mm f/2.5 Macro
The way this picture turned out made me think of a dissolving bath bomb splashing as it hits the water. The look of the splash behind the rose was a happy accident. I had a specific depth of field in mind but that type of blur was not intended. Pretty cool light effect. No Photoshop here.
