A try at liquids.

[bantor]

Well I was looking through the December contest pictures, and I was inspired to try some of my own.

1.

2.

3.

Not very spectacular, but I thought they turned out alright for my first try at liquids.

Thanks for looking,

After seeing the fabulous images of liquids posted on here, Im eager to have a go at this myself.
I really like the starkness of the b&w in pic 3, well done!

i really like the 3rd one. I want to have a go at doing liquid shots like that, but i dont have a macro lens...doh!

Thanks guys. It was actually fun doing this, I think i am going to try a few more with colored liquids and other random effects soon.

the third's my favorite. the first doesn't really do it for me... no offence :meh:. but i like 2 and 3 but the b&w works better for that shot. nice work!

Thanks all. Truth be told, I agree also with what is being said. Number one was my first try and I thought a different perspective would look cool, but ultimatly the actual drops turned out much better.

Thanks again all, I did one more, what do you think about this one?

SR1, I would love to. Shutter at 1/60 of a second f5.6 55mm, but here is the kicker, use a flash. I could have done this with an even slower shutter speed, but the flash capture the exact moment it flashes at. To do high speed stuff if you use a flash you should be good to go. Just make sure the flash setting is set to go off when the sutter opens and not when it closes.

thanks for that detailed info....gonna write that down, so i can't forget:mrgreen:

The last one is really impressive....think you turned it on the site...gives a great effect, like a slow-motion bullet striking into glass....amazing:hail:
