    Oddly enough, I've never shot water droplets.

    Exactly why I said almost obligatory. Would you agree that most photographers have tried this at least once? I'm not saying upwards of 90% of photographers, but an overwhelming percentage probably have.

    Model:Canon EOS 20D
    Lens:ISO:400
    Exposure:1/1250 sec
    Aperture:4.5
    Focal Length:34mm
    Flash Used:No


    Lens: 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6


    This is my best attempt. Not much. Certainly not in the ways of composition. I was just excited to get the drop halfway. The reflection in it was an added bonus for my persistence I guess lol. I had only had my camera about 1 1/2 months at this point (February 09). I'd like to think I've grown tremendously in the months since then since then (Not to the heights of some people on here) but it's a constant learning experience. And I love that.

    Well, that's why I said "oddly enough," because I'd say that many photographers serious about their craft (especially those interested in macro photography) have.

    Wow. Some really snazzy stuff.


    I need to get out and experiment more. Most everything I've gotten of droplets has been static.


    More to try...
