I’m fascinated by water drop shots I’ve seen around. This is my first attempt at making some of my own.
I followed a guide I saw on the Strobist site.
I used a canon 580EX II off camera left at 1/4 power. It was triggered with a Canon ST-E2 wireless transmitter. I basically used the exact same technique from the Strobist tutorial.
The colors come from a combination of a really poor painting of mine and an ad on the back of a magazine I had laying around.
It was a lot of fun to do and I will definitely be trying this again, hopefully with better results.
Here’s the photo I originally toyed around with submitting.
This photo was taken at the Oklahoma Aquarium in Jenks, Oklahoma with a Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 (the thrifty fifty).
