well ive seen some really good shots of water droplets on here and really wanted to have ago, i was put of by the idea as all i have is a camera, no wireless flash or anything fancy but tonight i thought sod it.

so i went to kitchen set up tripod and hung a food with water in of it, put a plate with some water in on the floor and put my camera on one of them little 8 inch tripods.

set iso speed ect and these are the results

red-droplet-2.gif

red-droplet-1.gif

blue-droplet-1.gif


all c+c is very welcome and i even have some of my own

i think i should have got lower ( more horizon if that makes sense ) as they look as though im looking down, which i am.not that keen on no1 and number 2 and 3 are my favs, but i think i should have reduced the noise ( not sure on this can some one say )

but for my first attempt at any serious pictures im very happy with them but im gonna try and do better in a couple of days.

took me 198 shots and i ended up just keeping these which i think were the better of the bunch


thanks for lookiing and look forward to your c+c

When caught well these always look great, but I don't think #1 falls into that category,sorry. Love #2, an unusual splash and great colours.
More horizon? These look good to me from most angles, including yours.
I see a lot of these on here and the one thing I have to admire each time is the patience you droplet catchers have. Respect to you all.

agreed mate i dont like number 1 but i done 4 different colours and this was the best yellow so i thought i would post it any way, number 2 is my best so far i reckon
