EF100mm, f/11, 1/60th Second, ISO100, RAW, tripod.
Another take on the olive oil drops on a CD, a few moments after the droplets spread out and connected with each other.
This shot was a few seconds after my first "Union" image and the connection point has widened, very slightly.
The colors are from small halogen lights held at various angles to the CD; the banding effect is a result
of the CD's metallic layer. I did spot cloning to clean up dust & scratches, but no filters/colors were added.
