Tension creates a water lens which is going to function as a mirror giving external reflection, and most interestingly a natural camera, producing a picture of the external world.
I wrote about this many times, and published dozens of raindrops and dewdrops, even of frozen ones.

Thanks, Lucy. We humans are drawn to looking into water droplets, flames and clouds. Our brains get confused and see all sorts of things in them. They are natural televisions that don’t require a licence before we can legally watch them. 🙂

And a Heaven in a wild flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand,
And Eternity in an hour.”
