Water Drops - 3D Contest [10 entries]

A drop in the pond Picture

Winning entry, with a score of:
73.6%
Contest goal:

It's one of the most favorite subjects in our photo contests, time to challenge you to make one in 3D. Go through the photo contests and see what is possible (THE EYE also had a great article about them http://www.pxleyes.com/the-eye/) and make us something even better! More beautiful shapes and very extravagant colors.
Think even surrealism, but whatever you make, it has to be clear that it's still a water drop / splash. Other fluids are not allowed.

As examples what we are looking for: http://www.pxleyes.com/album/3367/Waterdrops.html

Contest Moderator: added a link to what kind of entries we expect, any other entries are considered to be off theme. ( 5 years and 2626 days ago )
Mad: The posted link shows drops hitting a water surface. Does that mean that any other kind of depiction of water drops will be considered off-theme? Like rain, dew, faucet drops, abstract shapes/colours, etc.? ( 5 years and 2625 days ago )
Contest Moderator: @Mad: yes the given examples with the link are what we are looking for, your examples will be considered off theme. Download the eye 3 and you can see the referred article. ( 5 years and 2625 days ago )
mircea: if we drop something else in that water recipient that generates a plume, it's ok? ( 5 years and 2624 days ago )
lchappell: I think a better contest description would be water splash ( 5 years and 2623 days ago )
CoyDog: I think water drops is right. As the contest seem to be referring to the something like what is found in Eye3 page 10..to page 16 as a reference... but should it be Fluid drops ? But fluid drop don't sound right. ( 5 years and 2621 days ago )
