Macro Monday: Drip

Make it stop! Somebody, please make it stop!!!




For more Macro Monday, go here.

Apparently many of you are wondering about how I took these  photos and have asked for an explanation.
If I have some time tomorrow, I shall do a little tutorial on how to shoot dripping taps - but just a word of warning - the taking of the photograph will probably drive you as insane as the dripping tap does!

David said...

Coolest water I've ever seen. And yes, how did you do that? Colored flashlights maybe? A strobelight?
I'm stumped.

Aaaaah!! I don't have a fast enough camera, I think, to catch drops. Either that, or I don't have good enough lights. Or both.

Those are stunning! Yep, I think you need to do a tutorial, so we can all do these awesome drip shots!
