Wow, Nicole. These are great macro shots. The droplets are amazingly clear. Nice work. Lastly, happy birthday. I only wish I could spend more money on gear! Take care.

Thanks Cathy Although the droplet is ever so slightly out of focus I just loved that little droplet myself. I tried to recreate it several times, but never looked as good as that one.

Thanks very much. You don't have to spend a lot on gear to try out the technique used here. If you're interested in playing with a ring flash you might want to check out DIYPhotography.net | Photography and Studio Lighting they have several different methods for creating your own ring lights. I tried making one with a CD spindle not that long ago and it did work (not quite this well, but it worked), it just looked a bit mangy lol

Happy Birthday Nicole, I know you'll enjoy that flash unit! I can see your pretty intuitive with it already. Nice Captures.
Thanks for sharing these
Michael.
