This image shows how boiling water evaporated into steam and when there was no more heat being applied the steam cooled and condensed onto the side of a glass pot where the drops of water formed bigger and bigger.

I love how the light plays with the droplets. I would have loved to see some red in there, to spice things up.
Both the shapes and colors in this image are super pleasing to look at. I think a larger depth of field could have kept more of those interesting irregular shapes in focus, giving more out of the image.
I really like this photo. I like how it reminds me of driving a car at night in the rain, and I think the lighting and lights really add to that. I also really like how its blurred on the edges and focused really well in the middle, it draws your attention into the detailed parts.
In my opinion, bright lights and bold colors in an otherwise dark space draw my eye, and having that part of the image out of focus is a little distracting. However, your other focal point is really well done and the light is used well to draw the eye to the most in-focus part of the image.
I like this image because it gives a really moody feel and its cool that it demonstrates condensation while not being directly apparent that what you’re taking a picture of is the kettle. I like your idea of in the future waiting longer in the process to see what happens to the condensation droplets and possibly look into how this translates to technical explanations of this phenomenon.
What did you use for lighting in the background? It is interested that it is so dark on both sides.
What made you decide on the blue and green LED lighting? Did you play with warmer colors like red and yellow at all?
I really like the way all of the droplets, particularly near the bottom, have parallel edges, yet hold irregular shapes.
I really like the focus of this image. The edges are blurred drawing more attention to the center of the image and larger drops. Also, towards the top of the image the drops are more tightly packed together almost giving the look of broken glass. It is really well visualized to see the boundaries between drops become smaller at the top and larger at the bottom.
