Richard,If I place a small convex shaped drop of water onto a transparent surface, surely the light will be refracted (i.e. bent) as it passes through the air/water interface an then again as it passes through the water/film interface. Just as though there was a tiny (plano-convex) lens on top ofthe film's surface.This assumes that the light is not perpendicular to the drop, and that the refractive index of air and the film are different to that of water.regards Peter
This might happen if enough water condensed on the film but the problems I mentioned are the more usual ones.
