Simply beautiful Steve Right mate now I will set you a challenge as you are just so damn good at this Have you seen the Smirnoff advertising campaign by Martin Vaugh.
Here is a link: \Martin Vaugh's Smirnoff Ad I think you will manage it easily but would be great to see your lend on it. Hope you don't mind me setting you a challenge.
This is simply beautiful. Nice to see some variation from the standard photo of a water drop. I'd love a slightly more in-depth explanation of how you achieved this!
Thanks everyone
Thanks Alby Now that is a challenge! and one which I will certainly have a very serious attempt at
Steve
Loving the rainbow against black colors. Great shot!!!
hi steve a great shot what settings did you use
1.6 secs exposure
Did I read that correctly?
You did
I love it and tried this with a cd myself today but did not get the reflections I wanted. I also tried your shutter speed and got some very peculiar results. I think I prefer 1/60th to 1/125 shutter speed using my macro ring flash at 32 or 64.
Im having another attempt tomorrow, so can I pick your brains?
What angle is the cd at? Is it directly behind the drop, any chance you could take a photograph of the set up?
I tried drops from a bag today but got no collisions, I will try a different type of bag tomorrow with different sized holes again. Ive also tried drops from a syringe, by hand, but Ive no chance of collisions with that method. I'm determined to crack this in the next few days, do you have any tips?
Any chance of a reply?
