Description
Over the last few days i have been experimenting with my macro lens and its ability to photograph droplets. I took these the other day, as I wanted to take some photos in B/W as it has been a while, and might gives a great pure white droplet. My setup is in my scraps, here: [link] Any comments and Critique is mighty welcome, afterall this was an experiment to better understand my lens/camera and how macro works, while also attempting a pleasing photo.Jezza
PS If anyone can find a better catagory, it would be much appreciated

Yeah that is r-a-d man. Are they two completley different shots? Or just one drop with two quick succession shots? Looks great.

Awesome shot. Looks so much more smooth and classy with milk. Puts my attempts to shame

mmmmmm, i want milk now i've always wanted to take cool droplet shots of any sort of liquid substance, but i could never be bothered setting up as much as you have for these shots
that could be attributed to my laziness however...

Very cool shot, just awesome really. I cant tell you anything to improve it,thats just great. All I can say is what they use to do shots like that for comercials, they use white paint instead of milk,lol.

Well its cause that milk would spoil under the hot lights used to film. So you can imagine after a few takes it would have a sour smell,lol. Its only used when someone has to eat it,lol.

lol, well paint that thick would take hours to just skin up good. Since all you have to to is stir a bit and its liquid again. They use lots of those tricks in film, some cause the real stuff doesnt show up as well as something fake,lol.
