Daniel, absolutely amazing macro work, what was your shutter speed and set up on this one; love how you captured the progression of drips, yet froze some of the drops at the same time; can you share some of the technical aspects with us? Outstanding work! #2413561Joy Rector February 13, 2006

Wow what a capture!Daniel!!! (R) #2414028Emile Abbott February 13, 2006
I as Nina would love to know your technique and technical, Daniel. I have never tried to capture droplet as you have in this series. Each has its own character and uniquteness and am looking forward to your next one but please share the info. #2414099Daniel Diaz February 13, 2006
No problem guys, Don't hate me when I tell you this. This one was a handheld shot, manually focused by rocking back and forth and firing the shutter when it looked to be in focus. I took about 20 shots and got maybe 5 Keepers.Shutter Speed was 1/500, F/11(i think), ISO 200. I used the on-board flash also, with Canon cameras I belive you can only go up to 1/250 speed with the flash. #2414124

Absolutely spectacular, Daniel ... WOW, WOW, WOW :-)!!Paul Sikora February 14, 2006
Daniel, I didn't realise you could capture so much beauty in a drop of water #2416868Kate Jackson February 16, 2006
This is my favourite of your water drops Daniel! A big spectacular WOW! #2425014Daniel Diaz February 20, 2006
Igor, I'm sorry you feel that way, I've never knocked Canon at all, in fact I love Canon, I just happen to shoot with a Nikon. I was simply letting many Canon users here know that 1/500 was not possible with flash as they may not have been aware. I've never said Nikon was better, they are both equally capable of excellent results. The only reason I chose Nikon was purly ergonomics, it felt better in my hand. Thankyou for your kind words on my photography though. I wish Nikon was paying me though, LOL!!!!Cheers
