 Midori and Grenadine. Shot in my homemade light box. I kept trying to get the colored streams to cross so one would act as a lens and bring the other into focus via refraction. It took about an hour to get one shot in focus! This was my most successful take.

Excellent title for photo I like the way the bed reflex into the green stream. The vials at the top are little fuzzy. That's not really necessarily for them to be clear due to the fact that the focus should be on the mixture of colors at the bottom.

I like the effect of the back stream showing through the front stream -- it's a good variation on the ubiquitous water drop miniatures. The top half of the photo is less successful. Those yellow plastic spouts are terribly ugly, even when blurred. Tapered watering can spouts would be better, and glass or some other more photogenic material would be even better.
