Was at Malaysia recently, and when its raining, thought of trying this in the hotel toilet sink, coffee cup.

A550+SAL18250+nikon 6T+Sigma closeup filter, f22, 1/125s, two diffuse flash, supported on edge of sink. PS for colour.

Thanks! Think the shutter could have been faster here....some motion blur for some.
 

Nice shots. Can you PM on how to do achieve those pics? Thanks and happy X'mas.
 

Wow, nice! I remember attempting this exactly 1 year ago, and was totally noob at it. I'll have to give it another shot. :thumbsup:

Well, can share here. Main issues to get right is the focus and light.

Focus on where the drop will land, and fix it...use MF. As the apeture would be small and shutter need to be fast, lighting must be sufficient. Hence I use 2 flashes. The colour can be changed by putting colours of choice at the back of the shot.

Let the drops come, and just shoot...and hope you capture something interesting.
