The only think I find distracting is that the water drop reflects the whole room and creates a little clutter. It might be more calm looking if you surrounded your area with posterboard or something along the lines; this would double as a bounceboard. Also if you used a smaller aperture, something around 2.8 (or smaller) if it goes that big. Also what lighting setup do you use? When I browse water drop photos on Flickr It seems that people use a combination of diffused lighting to give it a smooth look, and harsh to give it highlights. If you have gels you could give it multiple colors.
Hope I could help a little, I don't have tons of experience with water drop photography, but I know a little from experience and browsing the web. |

Thanks Kyle!
I actually like reflections in water drops,but that's me. I see how it is distracting though. Thank you for the posterboard suggestion. I have one. It's black on one side and white on the other. It also has a matte finish. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing though. I'll use it next time to see if that helps. As for the lighting i had my pop up flash and an LED lamp to my right pointed at my background. Which was actually a "Sprite" case. Thought that'd give it some color. In the rest of this series i have the green as the background. And yes,you were of help! Thank you!
