Had a quick go at this for my 365 project but really wanted to try it again with a bit more time.

Would like a better set up so I can get some more varied shots.

Great set #1 looks like a medal from an athletics meeting.

Hi
Great set of shots, but personally would have liked a portrait crop especially for the multi drop shots - just my humble opinion.
Excellent though, must try this myself someday

What lens did you use/ / distance were you?

I have tried this but can't seem to get all of the bubble etc in focus.

Loving these - please share set up & how you did them with us - is it water or glycerin? What exactly was the union jack?

many thanks
Hazel

Just the Canon 18-55mm kit lens, less than 30cm. I just focused where the drops were falling (using my finger) and then set it to manual focus.

Thanks Hazel - It was water, straight out of the tap! The Union Jack was a chopping board. I will be doing this again tomorrow hopefully, so will add some setup pictures.
