I recently submitted a tutorial article detailing how to do this for FujiFilm's MyFinePix site. If you want to see how this is done have a look at my article here. It is not all that difficult to accomplish but it does require patience.
For a higher resolution view go here.
Coming back to AM3 after a long hiatus. I hope to be more active in the coming months.
Thank you so much for sharing!!! I went through all the steps - I will definitely try it one day!
Stunning image

Everything is spot on,

One of the very first 'serious' shots I took (on 35mm film !) was of a water droplet like this . . it was nowhere as good as this . . but I've practiced for a few decades since then ! This is Five***** brilliant.

Wow! I am overwhelmed by the response to this image especially with it making the spotlight. Thanks to everyone. I've been pretty inactive in terms of making the rounds here and leaving comments and replies which makes me feel rather guilty for receiving such a response to this image. Again thanks to all! You've made my day that much brighter.
