Everyone keeps saying the flowers are reflected in Eek's photo (grats btw Eek), so I just have to point out that theyre refracted :lol:

Its called refractive macro photography, Im somewhat obsessed with it myself.

Heres some more examples of it:

I had to look up the definition of refraction and reflection..
Seems that refraction is included in the reflection definition ;)

The theme was reflection, which is a change of direction of an object, or light.
Refraction, which is the water drops with an image in it, is also considered as reflection, which I didn't know until I looked in the dictionary.
English is not my first language, so sometimes I make sense, and sometimes I don't :p
