Israeli photographer and policeman Arik Kfir is very talented when it comes to the art of [water droplet photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lidris). The whole process requires patience, luck and perfect timing. He never uses Photoshop; he simply drops water in front of an image to create a reflection in the droplet.

The photographer captures iconic images within the water droplets. His subjects include The Simpsons, The Pink Panther, Tom and Jerry and [Batman](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/batman-x-air-up).

The photos are very dream-like as the globe-like icons seem to float freely in the center. The droplets are very reminiscent of a [snow globe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mirror-works) or icicles. The iconic droplet images are very vibrant and the water doesn't seem to dull their color. Looking at them will make you miss your childhood yet feel content.
