Oh... that was me?

This is amazing! Amazing!! This is the type of photo that takes on a life of its own. I am floored Captain - floored. I needed a couple of hours to collect my thoughts, and I'm still doing a damn poor job of commenting on this amazing image.
Please add it to the FlickrCentral pool.

CaptPiper (84 months ago | reply)
Thank you, Creativity+ and shikeroku, and everyone.
Annetics, this has not been photoshopped in anyway. Well, except for cropping and turning it upsidedown. I just held the camera on the far side of the droplets, pointed it at myself and clicked. Not hard at'all! ; )

Nice new way to use photoshop
CaptPiper (81 months ago | reply)
Thank you , Hans863, but this is not photoshopped. I just held the camera on the other side of the waterdrops, pointed it at myself on macro and shot. Really. I'm not this good at photoshop.
