Thanks for the wonderful 6+ score and the comments, they are always very much appreciated.
For ti_evom:
Capturing a moving droplet actually "sitting" on the surface of the water for a fraction of a second before it disappears into the water below is immensely difficult to get even when using a tripod.
If you manage to get a shot like this with the camera handheld, I'd love to see it.

Oh, "you're" the one who got this magnificent shot. I might have known.
It is just lovely, Irene, and yes, of course technically incredibly difficult.
That's the kind you tackle.
I hope your health issues are behind you?
In any case, it's good to see your images on DPC whenever you care to contend.
Obvious use of a tripod, or any other long-term stabilization tool (1-10 *is not the score of the shot though*): 5
Although a tripod was likely used, doing this shot handheld with a couple of strong light sources could have been done as well.
