Splash on a saw
I got a chance to take some more high speed water drop photography today. I think it is a dramatic improvement over my first attempt a while back.In order to make the drop look different than other more simple shots i've seen, I used an old rusty saw as the backdrop. The worn wood and the rusty screws contrast dramatically with the bright and clean looking water droplets. The shallow depth of field also helps focus the attention on the splash.
I was very impressed with the texture and color in the photo given the extremely high shutter speed.

I think you've achieved the creation of a new type of drop. Fabulous!
Dude ..... Awesome blog!
The clouds pic is nice and so is the watch (very innovative , I must say).......
Voted for blog warzz!
Absolutely brillant shot.
This might be one of your better ones.
Thanks for the comments, I'm really proud of this one. I have a bunch more from this shoot which i'll post in the future.
Thanks K.T,
In total I took around 550 shots (in different setups) I kept about 60 of the shots of which this one was the best. I'm glad I've got digital, otherwise this would be an expensive experiment with film.
Really great picture!!
I love it!
I would like to be such a talented photographer!
Cool shot, very nice. I'll have to try this one day--you've inspired me.
Very cool shot! I love the cylinder effect that the water droplet makes. The lighting is really nice and the backdrop is unexpected. Nice job.
Thanks for the comments. There was definetely a lot of work in getting this shot.
nice picture, i love the warm, rusty feeling in it
Wow, this is very nice. Excellent lighting.
