Thank you Joy.
Thank you Christine. The oil is a broken up in this, could be better. Looks like planets and moons circling around them.

I still have never tried this, Gayle. I like the subtle, banded colors in this seemingly galactic interaction of planets. #10941902

A great idea for the theme! I love doing oil on water, so many fun variations. This one turned out really nice, sharp and interesting! #10942414

Thanks Bob, David and Michele. Good luck on the theme. I saw some really neat looking ones in the file.

Very nice, Gayle. I didn't try shooting with oil and water - it looks like the droplets are much more uniform with oil. As others have said, you're looks like something from deep space. Kudos! #10942988
