Reminds me of a "magic" trick I learned when young.

A penny in a very shallow dish of water...just covering th penny. Ask your audience to remove the penny without getting their fingers wet,

The trick.,.pour some rubbing alcohol over the penny, and it displaces the water.

That's a good one.

I'll have to try it sometime.

Ok, here's a *snapshot* of her experiment:

I think it looks pretty cool, and was certainly fun to see the speed the colors bounce around in the milk when she tapped the milk gently with the q-tip.

Thanks.

We'll probably do it again one day when i get more familiar with the photography stuff and am ready to *really* photograph it. I could see that being a nice computer wallpaper if done well.

Oh me too! Too bad I don't have any macro lenses, skills, or extension tubes. The best I can do is get several feet away and hope my zoom/telephoto lens can get something reasonable. Then it's not anywhere near the quality of macro. But yeah, it's easy to setup that shot, so one day I'll try it macro when I can.
