I love your "drop" shots---they hold so much meaning to me with my kids (a montessori thing). I love the colors here....great!

Dan, Thank you that sounds like a plan. I was trying the sound sensor. I built it myself using a laptop, in the dark with the camera on bulb and my studio lighting wired into the laptop. make a sound and it would flash but I never got a decent drop. I will try your way with digital what do I have to lose. Just hold in the shutter button and burst fire.

Shawn I will be happy to let you know my set up . You can use on camera flash , But I prefer Flash from the side. Take a pan of water and submerge a colorful plate about 1" under the surface . You might have to set something under it to get it near the top of the container or pan.Now set something in the middle of the plate , I use a prescription drug bottle, and prefocus the camera at the spot where you want the drops to hit.Remove the bottle. Use an eye dropper to drop the water , raise and lower the height of the droper hand until you get the timimg right , You drop and hit the shutter kind of together, With a little practice you can usually get 2 good drop per 10 tries. hope this helps

Dan,
This is beautiful. I have been trying this exact thing, but if you look at my portfolio you will see that I am not doing a good job (there are no photos of this there) I cant get the drop. I have tried every thing. Your colors are outstanding and the drop is perfect. Any suggestions you have would be highly useful. or info on your setup.

I always enjoy water drop images, as cliche as they are. The colours in this one make it more interesting than the usual water droplet shot.
