I love it! The timing of it is perfect imo, I love how close up it is - I love macro but I don't have the right equipment at this time

This is as inspiring as it is beautiful. Congratulations on your tenacity. It was certainly worth the effort. As others have asked, what else could you want? 10/Favorite

Well focused. These are very tricky to shoot. I like the metallic look to the water. Nicely done.

I will try to explain what I did with this shot..
I filled the sink(white Porcelin) with tap water to within one or so inches from the top and then created a drip from the tap... I then went even level with the sink on macro setting with a manual aperture setting and manual focus along with the shutter speed change. As I am new to this stuff, I realise now I put my ap and shutter remarks in the wrong places!! Duh!
My ultimate goal was to attempt to capture the drop of water as it explodes on the surface of sitting water. I had natural light from a long and wide bank of windows and I used my flash with that.
There is no colour added to the water and dependant on the angle is the end colour result I got...
I tweaked the saturation by approx 3 and the hue not at all.
I am fascinated by photography and what you can achieve with water..I am not done with this attempt..I took over 300 hundred frames and kept about fifteen.
I am delighted though that so many people have viewed these two photographs.. that makes me think I am on the right track.

Great shot. Can't wait to see more in this series. It's funny how someting so simple can evoke so much beauty. One of the many plusses to macro photography.

*grin* Even though the set up took you a long time, I don;t think that 1/800th of a second is a long exposure!
How was this lit? I think it's classically beautiful with the blue tones and the water drop emerging. What did you have the water in, in able to get that close with your tiffen close up lenses?
And of course, what is THE image you are going for? Maybe we can make some suggestions on how to get closer to your goal?
Still, a wonderful shot!

Nice pic. You've inspired me to try something along these lines, however; time is my enemy ;)
