I'd tried this a few times before without much luck. But, I found a simple tutorial that required no external flashes...and I went to it. I used my newly acquired Minolta 35-70/4 on Macro Mode for these. I want to try again, maybe with different colors etc...plus I want to work on my timing. ~100 shots, these were the best two.
Think I got a pretty good one here...

This one I did a little more with the colors in GIMP. Played with yellows, reds and blues a bit more. Turned out rather nice.

How I did it:
- White bowl as a base
- Yellow bowl on top - filled with water
- Blue lid behind for color contrast
- Turn sink on to SUPER low - about a drop every two seconds
- Macro mode on 35-70f/4 lens
- Manual focus on Spatula where drops are hitting
- Set stock flash to -2EV
- Set White Balance to 'Florescent +4'
- SNAP, dang. SNAP, dang. SNAP, dang. SNAP, dang. SNAP, dang. SNAP, dang. SNAP, dang. SNAP, dang. SNAP, dang.
- SNAP.........SWEEEEEET!!!!!
