Amazing. I shot a fly the other day blowing a bubble, I didn't notice until I saw it on my PC. I was wondering if a good refraction was possible, clearly it is.

Great shot Bill. I love a shot that you have to study a bit.
I looked at the droplet for at least a minute before I saw the refraction I was looking for...Brilliant
