for some more details, obviously i was on a tripod and i had my son drip some water from a glass about a foot above the tray of water. you definately have to have quick reflexes on the button. this was one of about 6 that i took. i must try the invert on it.

A very nice capture, Jethro! I've experimented a little with water, but haven't come up with anything as brilliant as this! Must keep trying!

Hey Jethro,

Have you ever checked out Aaron Chang's photography. His captures of the essence of water and nature remind me some of this shot. He was at the Photo showdown in Whistler and I was really impressed. He had a great presentation. Sorry for the tease earlier, I really like the shot.

Jethro or Marcus if you ever need any stock photos, especially of water or ethereal etc just let me know as I have a few from my days in the design business. :D

Excellent shot! I can't see a man, but I can see a hand reaching up to grab hold of the droplet.
