Thumbs up Water Creatures

Here are more of the shots from my experiment on capturing water drops and crowns. This time I got formations of some sort of "creatures" coming out of the water. I hope you enjoy looking at them.

Trying to shoot dripping water drives me crazy!! You did a great job I really like the first one, I think it's something with the colors in the first one that does it for me. Wonderful pictures.

I haven't done water drops for a while because I know how much patience is required. These are excellent and you patience has paid off with dividends. Very crisp and sharp and the timing is so good. Well done Rick, this is great work.

Wow Rick you have a certain talent here. I like the way the last picture shows a drop meeting the water in global form.

Thanks Jake. I guess I was just learning a lot from this forum.

I must have seen dozens of these and every time I do, I want to try it (again) Your pictures are great, and I hate you for it HOW I TOOK IT, I read the thread too, and should have added my own, HOW I MADE A MESS AND GOT MOANED AT. So of course water, cameras and me can only come together outside now.
You however produce a quality selection of water creatures and once again I feel like having a go, and maybe I'll get one half of good as yours
