Fabulous photos in terms of composition and colours. I have experimented with changing the surface tension of water for other experiments, but never for photography.

I love how you use a flower(s) as the background in these images that is pretty creative, something more than just documenting what is in front of your camera. Well done.

These are simply incredible! I love the detail.
When you say "I pulled out the water drop kit and macro lens," can you describe what you consider a water drop kit? Or really, what goes into making these photos?
Flat body of water, colorful background, even lighting, I'm assuming. Are these shot with a 100mm f/2.8 macro lens? Camera on a tripod manually prefocused at a certain point, then just shoot a ton of drops? What else am I missing from the process?
