This is my first posting in photo art. I think I might be the last photographer to try this with oil and water...I'm sure everyone else has done it but I had such a fun time with it out in my garden today. I used an old Hawaiian shirt for the color underneath a clear glass pan with water and oil in it.

Canon 5d, M3, ISO100, 100mm macro, f/11, 1/400 sec., tripod. Natural light.

Thanks in advance for any comments or critiques.

Looks like Oil and Water mix well in this unique image. Great idea and a beautiful composition Kathy.
I would clone out the dark dirt specs throughout the image for a cleaner appearance, they are very noticeable in the large version.
Well Done . . . :toast:
