Well, they are both great, but I think I like the first one with the suspended beads of water hovering above. The texture and color makes it look like metal, doesn't it? Or, perhaps, mercury (which, I know is a metal, but is normally in liquid form). I'd say you captured it. I've tried a little of such, but outside with falling raindrops or water dripping from eaves.
