Another very cool shot!

I have got to get a macro lens! This is really nice Ian.

Guest		29-Jan-2004 11:16
WOW excellent work!

Ron Lutz II		28-Jan-2004 17:39
Very well done indeed!

Elizabeth Glass		28-Jan-2004 15:47
This turned out SO awesome. I love the black and white finish. Wow!

I gave this a try last night. It took me the first 30 captures just to time it, then of course, it was out of focus. I have a new appreciation for your effort here Ian.

Guest		27-Jan-2004 20:38
wow,Ian, perfect shot! So how big a memory card to you fill twice?? Oh the weird things we do to get a PAD!!

Guest		27-Jan-2004 19:49
Well, now I have to see if I can do this with a compact camera. I think I might get lucky on the timing, but I doubt the image will look as good as this does overall.

This great...I just love how this turn out....

Incredible capture Ian. I will have to play around with the droplet thing this weekend, when I have time to do it again and again and again!

Guest		27-Jan-2004 15:07
Great shot!

Like the nature pogrammes we watch we (the viewer) don't see/know how long it took to get that great shot. Well done Ian a brilliant photo.

Beautiful capture.

Guest		27-Jan-2004 02:57
Very nice capture...sometimes those shots that take forever to get are well worth it.

Rob T		27-Jan-2004 02:07
Great picture and finish. I'm gonna try this someday. Rob

Guest		26-Jan-2004 21:37
Nice work, Ian! I look forward to seeing more!

Kicking my heels..I have shot images upon image upon image of water droplets from my shower, my faucet in kitchen, faucet in bthroom...NONE of them turned out..Ummm didnt use a flash however. I still doubt that I could do this. JEALOUS I am... This is just so Ian! Fabulous.

Guest		26-Jan-2004 19:32
Right ok! Thanks for filling me in!

Ian Chappell		26-Jan-2004 19:06
Al.. It's the split second speed of the flash that freeze frames the droplet, not the shutter speed in this case, you should be able to do this with your 300D and the 420EX!

Linda A		26-Jan-2004 19:02
Phwoar - perfect!

Guest		26-Jan-2004 18:57
Another great shot Ian. I would have thought you might need a faster shutter speed than 1/200s but this shows how wrong I am! Nicely done...

Guest		26-Jan-2004 18:56
Great timing and perfect sharpness. Very crisp. -- angela :)

As Dan Maskell would have said "I say, this is extraordinary!" Did you have to recharge your battery as well?
