You can imagine yourself, the number of shots, considering that there is no need to wash my face again till next weekend.Anyway it was a crazy idea while washing my face with the left hand, to shoot blindfold macro high speed flash photos with the right!

Great clarity on those water drops Joe, did you splash the camera :)?. --Melanie

Joe: It had to be you! I'm struck by the Colgate toothpaste...those multinational corporations! How many takes did this require. Nice and fun! Fremiet

Very nice Joe! I like your creativity and your framing (want to share?) as well as the droplets catching the light. Very nicely done!

Good idea, Joe. I like the angle of view...and your catch of the falling water. The basin provides good contrast for the reflected light in the drops. How many times did you have to wash your face to get the shot that you liked? Well done...and clever title. MFC
