water drops in the sink

[garethnash]

From a suggestion in an old photo magazine. My new 50mm f1.8 lens did the job. Bottom of the sink is scratched and I dont think the high iso helped.

One of my first posts and I think there are an awful lot of better photographers here for c+c.

For a first try I think you did well. Next time try to move your camera closer
to water level so you can see more of the water column. Angle you used
works great for crown shot but not for this. Also if you have a flash, use it. By
using flash you can drop your ISO which means sharper, noise free images.
Taking shots a bit earlier and later you can capture different type of shots like
water crown etc. Also if you want to play bit more you can use bright color
cardboard to add some color on water.
Keep practicing, its pretty addicting :D

I would echo the comments made by Semmonka. If you do have a flash gun I would use that. Lower the ISO and increase your shutter. I would also suggest maybe changing your perspective slightly in order for the viewer to get an idea of the movement of the water. The central column of water can take on amazing contortions which allow the imagination to run wild. Gels underneath the water surface will allow for color plays, even better if again you lower that perspective and situate a light source through the gel. That would be best suited if you set up the shot with a drop landing in a glass container in the sink etc.

Great effort though. Be careful this kind of imaging gets addictive??
