    Question How was this reflection on the water droplets achieved?

    What method do you think this guy used to achieve the image in the water droplet (beside aiming a macro lens at the droplet)?
    Note: He did not use any PP to achieve this (only to touch up small details).
    I think he used a mirror above to reflect the scene (buildings) onto the water droplet & adding to the effect the image is then mirrored (upside down) in front of the droplets.

    This is one of his images as seen on Bored Panda. Notice what (to me) looks like a mirror above.

    Unlike the usual nature type that I took here where the scene in the droplet is upside down (as is normal with a single lens element which it essentially is).
