many thanks for the comments. the glass is the top of a glass skylight deck fixing . we had heavy rain and the sun came out and we started to steam[ the crew that is not the ship] and saw the reflections from below. the glass is overhead in the heads .

Super shot - I love the patterns but not really a change of state.

Nice example of light diffraction. The curve of the window makes an interesting pattern.

An interesting study in pattern, and refraction; maybe a little sharper focus would be better but it is hard to tell if the blur is light-shadow bleed or background blur. O.k. I've struggled with how to rank images and I have decided science fiction or change of state qualify. I see no change of state here (solid-liquid-gas-plasma) so I have dropped this from my initial list of top ten. :-( But I still like it as an image. [Edit] Changed my mind again after reading the forum. I'll take any Science Fact as qualifying in this Challenge.
