Ooooh, very nice capture! I've NEVER been able to get any shots like that, despite my thousands of efforts. =(

Wooow, simple, great detail. The water droplets are brillent.

 

[duncanp]

nice, where did u take the photo to get the contrasting background, i presume u didnt use flash as there are no reflection on glass

 

[yummifruitbat]

Superb! Random question, but why is the glass bent?

 

[duncanp]

^ i have to ask the same thing....

I dont know why the glass is bent. it is not in real life.

some kind of optical thingy...

It's an odd distortion. I like the image, too, and the clarity of the water drops, :thumbup: but the bent glass draws the eye, unfortunately.

 

[AIRIC]

Excellent!

[yummifruitbat]

Weird... still, a cool pic

Not sure I have the patience for setting up things like that...

 

[yummifruitbat]

Ah, hang on... just noticed that the backdrop is curved - I'd guess the bent glass effect is something to do with the water refracting the light at different angles after it's bounced off the curved sheet. Couldn't draw a diagram to explain that mind
