~before crash~


	~before crash~ another try of catching drops. This time I prefered to leave it in nature colors only added more vivacity to the blue. This is a drop catched before crashing and the ripples are from the previous drop. 1/60s - f/8 - iso 200 - with sigma macro 105mm - on tripod with flash and release cord. Sylvia Rossler

This is stunning Sylvia ~ thanks for the glimpse 'behind the scenes' ~ must have been fun experimenting with this shot.. I do not have a remote control and may need to invest in one to do some water play :)

I love this shot. I have the Pentax *ist DS and the same 105 Sigma lens. Thanks to you I now know how to set up for this. I enjoy macro and always thought water would be fun. My photos are just for fun, a pre-retirement (3 yrs to go) hobby. Thanks for the beautiful shot and the advice.
