I love the shot, especially the colors. Makes me hungry for sushi!

Perfectly timed - I won't ask how many efforts it took, and how many times you had to clean up and reset... ;-)

A different take on the dripping tap/water drop, and a refreshing one at that. I love the completely black background that also forms a reflective surface for your food to splatter on.

Well done. Will we get to see more of the alphabet?

Grumby.

This was actually my second shot. The first pellet grazed the top, and didn't spray very much. I aimed a little lower on the second shot, and got what you see above. I cropped out the pellet (just outside the frame).

Clean-up was pretty bad. I don't know what's in those eggs, but it dries really fast and gritty. Some got on my lens and I had to be careful not to scratch it.

Photos A through E can be seen on my flickr site: Alphabet Speed Photography Project - a set on Flickr

I don't eat sushi, but if makes for a very interesting photo. I love how clear the reflections are.

Great shot! I bet there was quite a clean up between shots!!! Was this a high speed flash sequence, or did you get it right with one shot?

Thanks for sharing.
