very impressive for a point and shoot cam to capture the motion and not overexpose or blur

If anyone is interested... taking photos of water drops is easier than I thought it would be. If you have a camera that you can adjust the setting manually, set it at F10 and 1/800 (the smallest "opening" and the shortest exposure time). Then, use a slow flash and experiment with water out of a faucet until you get the photo you like. I have found that faucets with multiple streams work the best (like a shower head and the spray nozzle on the sink). Feel free to check the "drops" part of my website (homepage.mac.com/lianabond) and email me if you have other questions.

great shot, nice and crisp. the contrast works great for black and white. im wondering if a vertical shot would've worked better
Post actions
a vertical frame could have been stronger ? Good stop motion, but the left hand side is too dark and 'empty'

I love this! I like how you can see the individual drops falling.

Beautiful water droplets. I'm not sure that I like this photo quite enough to give it 10, but it comes very close :)

lighting on the droplets and the stopped motion is unreal. i love this. im wondering what the bg is. excellent shot.

The shadow to light change really makes the water stand out. Very nicely done picture.

Simple, effective. A 7 from me.

The black space at L isn't doing much for me, and the gravity-defiant angle bugs me slightly. Those small issues aside, very fine.

The lighting was really good on this, and the stop motion too.

Fab shot, I'd love to know the camera settings etc for this picture.

Very nice. Crisp and clean.

Nice sparkle but not focused.

I love the uniqueness of this one. Boy, those water droplets sure sparkle! Very nice!

This looks great. The water looks like crystal. The angle of the water, for me, either needs to be more extreme, or more perfectly vertical.

great stopped motion photo. this image is well suited for black and white.

Imaginative. works well with b&w.

Neat pic, but left half is too dark, still better than most.

I wonder how this would look with a solid background?

This is an excellent shot... it would have done well in the stopped motion challenge as well :) good work!

Awesome, Awesome, Awesome! The way the light hits the water is great. I also love the way it starts out as a more steady stream and then breaks down into drops at the bottom of the picture. Top 3!

This would have worked well for stop motion as also. Excellent tonal range and contrast. Busy little water droplets, what was your setup?

I love water drops in a b/w photo. Well done. The sparkle just adds to it !!!

Wish I had the equipment and experience to do this.

UNREAL - Fantastic photo, well done you deserve a well earned (10)

You missed the stopped-motion challenge a few weeks back. Nice use of black and white though.
