Bejeweled Mystery

Here's a picture I snapped last night. Not Photoshopped (other than crop and resize). Any guesses as to its identification?

A shed snake skin? LOL! Sorry, but as soon as I saw it visions of snakes and leaves and tree limbs started going through my aging brain.

Does the title mean it really is a jewel, with an extreme close-up? Nah, that would be too easy. Whatever it is, it would make a great modern painting!

Lady K... You're on the right track. As Willy Wonka said in 1971, "Wait a minute! Strike that. Reverse it. Thank you."

I think she's got it! It's that Hawk, either through water, perhaps on your lens?

Gotta be, or I'll go nuttier than usual pondering it!

...and AD(S) wins the coveted "close enough" award!

In reality, this is a faceted crystal drinking glass filled with water, into which black ink has been dropped and swirled a bit.

Oh, of course it is! Which explains the "bejeweled" part. Good one - thanks for the mental exercise. Is there a trophy? :)
