It's awfully easy. My first shots where done with about 3 minutes of setup while I was supposed to be doing the dishes one evening. I just noticed the drip from the faucet splattering on a dinner plate. Wondered if I could catch it. Pulled out the camera and onboard flash and took a few shots. A dozen blanks then one that put a big smile on my face!
