One of the photo clubs I am in did a small workshop on creative macro water drop images. Look, it's too darn hot here in Houston for outdoor photography with full sun and 100 + degrees every darn day. So this was fun to do in a nice air conditioned classroom
Basic setup was camera with macro lens and some extension tubes pointed down at a DVD with some water drops on it. You can use a small LED lightsource or a flashlight or whatever you want as they all produce different results. The DVD has a prismatic rainbow effect when camera and lightsource are at the right angles. Of course you need to turn out ambient lights and be in a dark room.
