Description

Thanks for the interest...these are fun to shoot. Most images including this one are completed with the water in two colours, the drop being red and the tray filled with blue water,usually food colouring is used.The first drop hits the water and bounces back up having become blue and collides with the second drop and creates the red "umbella" type splash.

Exif: F Number: 8, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/2 seconds, Flash: reserved, ISO: 200, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 60.00 mm, Model: E-P3
