I was out back first think in the morning and it had froze the night before and was still below freezing. A barrel that collects rain water had what appeared to be a perfect water drop formed on it, but the "drop" was going up - opposing gravity. I've included two photos; the first showing the drop close up. (As with all my photos here, they have only been cropped - there is no other editing of the images.) I think this is a striking photo with the air bubbles suspended in the middle running from top to bottom, or is that bottom to top..? It has become one of my favorite of all time photos that I've taken.
The second photo shows the drop in context - rising up out of the lid of the water barrel. I think it's important as it shows the environment of the above photo. It also shows the background colors that become blurred in the macro shot which create the pleasing refraction's and reflections in the frozen water.
The final photo is of a second water barrel that also has a frozen water formation growing up out of it. This one looked like sword or even an old glass Christmas light. It also has bubbles of air suspended inside the frozen water. It too was very cool!
