I had another version with the 2nd drop cloned out - liked it better, but was afraid to enter it :) Thanks so much, everyone, for the lovely comments. I will be trying some more of these.

One of my top two for this challenge. The color is so subdued, subtle even (oops that's this week). I can't decide if the small bead is distracting or an essential element, but I don't really care either way, this draws me in. Nice. 9
