Default Drips and Drops

Here's my 1st Keeper at trying to capture water drops; Not much going on today, so I was bored and got ot the camera and a big bowl of water. I probably oversaturated this, but I like the angle and the colors. Feel free to make recomendations.



Isn't this a Great Site!!! I Love being able to share Photos with Y'all.
Thanks for looking
Chewys Dad.

Great shot, I have spent hours trying one of these shots and when you get the right one you feel so proud of yourself so I can appreciate what you went through to get this image. How many shots did you finally Have to make to get this one? its a real cool shot, it makes you just want to go back and look at it again. Thanks for sharing.

Chewy's Dad deserves a treat and applause. Bravo. You did well. The reflection in the drop is a photo within a photo. Very cool. Like the colors.

Thanks Everyone;
Acutally Tryfan; after I set up the Tripod with my Canon 40D and Sigma 105mm f/2.8 mm; I started letting the drops fall. and shooting with my remote swith and the on camera flash; I took 48 shots and this was the best one. A couple of others came out OK, but not as nice as this. I used the Settings and Suggestions I found on DPS and they Worked!!!!
I love this Place!!!!
