A small flower refracted in rain droplets at Cymbidium. Please notices refraction of the flower in the upper droplets as well.(The focus was stacked manually). The image was sent to Dr. Andrew Young. Here's his discretion of the image: "What a lot of beautiful effects are illustrated here! Images formed by reflection; both real and virtual images formed by refraction; and some fine examples of the contact angle where the droplets meet the plant surface. In some places, the plant cuticle is waxy, and the contact angle is near 90 degrees; in other places, the water wets the surface, and the contact angle is small. The picture is a real museum of physics, in addition to being a beautiful image. Thanks!"
