A 'water drop' attempt....... like you've never seen before!

Several weeks ago, my cats decided the water that comes from the tub faucet is the only water in the house worth drinking. As I took a relaxing bath this morning after doing my yard work, I looked up and saw a perfect 'water drop' shot!

So tonight, I set my monolights up in my bathroom, settled down into the tub with my D7000, and turned on the water for Mittens.

That's cool! My cats will do the same thing sometimes but I've never tried to get a shot of it. Very nice.

Those little pink hunks of 40-grit sandpaper move pretty quick, so take a lot. I took 145, and this was the best.

Dogs have owners. Cats have staff.

I love this picture...both as someone who's taken a million water drop shots and still not got it right, but also as a cat fanatic!!! The look in your cat's eyes is wonderful..."Fine. Photograph me if you must, but I won't autograph it for you!"

There's days I'll shoot 1000 frames and consider 10-15 as keepers.
