This photo was taken several days before the June 2021 magazine was received, but it illustrates a creative way to do water droplet refraction as was taught in that Photo Focus. Photo © Lily Hess, Edgar, WI.

As I prepared the June Photo Focus, I also took advantage of a clear day to try the techniques taught. I used a weed on the dam to hold several drops of glycerin. I then flipped the photo 180° so the refracted view would appear upright. Photo © Kevin Shank.
