Wet spectacle shot setup

Typical set up I use for doing refraction shots on a wet spectacle lens. I'm shooting around 3:1 FF magnification. I just slide the camera forward on the lens to focus and take a sequence of shots for stacking. The flower is in front of a curved background wedged between the table mat and a wine cooler. I use spectacles simply because they have a nice hydrophobic coating.
Note the refracted images appear in front (ie nearer to the camera) of the droplet focus point.
