two lights:
One with foil snoot(made foil into different shapes) coming from camera right about 2' away from a black background. 24x24 softbox behind the shrooms camera left projecting light forward to a gold sided reflector camera right at opposing angle. Speedlights all around.
Squeeze water from dropper and fire shutter until something looked good. It took quite a few shots to come up with one that had nice movement and a drip coming off the largest mushroom. Much respect to you water drop shooters out there.
I originally didn't want to include the pot but because it was an obvious setup, decided not to crop it out. Without the pot, it lacked balance IMO.
thanks again-6 yrs since my first ribbon and they're still exciting.

Ah wow, I have NO idea how I missed this in the competition... sorry, if I had seen it def a 10 so you ended up where you needed to with out my help! :^)
I wish the pot weren't shown... or at least if it were level. Without it, one imagines it as a little world as you title suggests. But the pot brings it back into MY world...
