Damn Tim, those are brilliant!

A pity we didn't have enough spare time to play around like that.

Nice work, Tim! Maybe you could take a shot of the set & link this thread in "Studio Lighting"?

Great work.

Would you be willing to share information about your set up for those water drop shots? Water droplets are certainly cliche, but those are really nice examples of the technique.

I already took the "studio" in my kitchen down, but if I set it up again i'll take a photo. I was going to, but I forgot :(

Easy stuff. Crumple some tinfoil, smooth it out, lay it on a tray and put a layer of blue transparent plastic on top of it. Put a big bowl completely full of water on top of that. Put your camera on a tripod, flash on top with a diffuser (I used a small softbox), and I put another flash at 10 o'clock with another diffuser (I used a lightsphere 2). Put a ruler over the bowl and focus on where you plan to drop the water. Use an eye dropper to drop into the bowl, use a shutter release cable to activate the shutter. Take 200 photos, and hope for 2 good ones. Alternately get a light or sound trigger for the camera,
