Liquid Crystal

Went out on a photo walk in Fish Creek this morning and spotted this glistening out of the corner of my eye.




This is the cropped version
It is dewdrops on the bottom end of a bit of fungus growing on a tree stump. Involved another belly shot too.

I thought the light stars might attract at least one comment.

Missed this one too!?? How is this happening. I don't know how you are finding all these dewy photos but they're very cool. Love the starbursts.

Iggy.

I keep missing things, too. I can't quite figure out from what the droplets suspend. Can you enlighten?

I've been missing stuff too...seems the volume of posts is increasing or my time to post is decreasing

I like this shot and of course the starburts - For me though, the fungus is unfortunately stealing the show here. I'm finding it hard not to keep staring at the top part of the photo.

Do you think I should crop it to remove some of the fungus? Thanks again for the comments.

[Marko]

Personally, yup - I think if you crop most of it out, you'll end up with a different shape and the attention will be on the liquid crystal.

cool. I agree with the crop. it might be fun to try a close up of just one of the drops too. :0)

Okay so I cropped the first version and here is a close up of another version:
