 Shot with my new 430EX. I set it to manual at 1/64 power and shot pretty much straight on. Dropped a bunch of drops, this was the coolest looking. The background is the inside of my kitchen sink (wet).

Shot in RAW: adjusted white balance and exposure

Crop
Wacky curves (very similar to the Acidify action)
B/W layer to desaturate it a bit

Nice "sploosh". Feel it needed a little more splash though... make it a bit more dynamic an image.
