You can...

1 drop per litre. As above: as long as an image without a flash is black, then when you flash the only image is that captured duing the flash. So either a quick exposure, or a long exposure in a dark room.

Awesome :) I commented in macro too! Nice one :) Rinse aid used as described allows taller collums and flowey collisions. Make sure your tray is deep enough. Very shallow water produces tall but very unpredictable spouts, I'd stick to fairly deep water - couple of inches if possible.

Wicked! Very cute! Once you get the hang of it you can get loads of keepers and just choose the best one :) Looking at the height of that I still think you need tp up your drip rate?

Look at that! Brilliant :) Nice one. Those tend to be produced using slower rates... seeing as you did 800 shots and only got one keeper, suggests to me you need to up that drip rate :) Needs to be nearly pouring out :)

Lol hi :) Thanks. And yes, that is (was) what I use :) Not done drops for... dunno, a year or so now?

I do the maths for every long exposure shot I do. Can't be waiting 4 minutes to find it's 1/3rd out or so. And it's really not difficult because you don't have to do very much maths... eg: Filter ON: attempt exposures at wide apertures / high ISO. once you've got it, simply reduce ISO to 100...

Awesome that's a brilliant start! I shall add you on Flickr! :D

Fantastic - just seen this! Any updated news?

No worries. Good luck, and post them in macro section! No worries, again good luck, I'll await pics ;)

Thanks. Yes indeed, they're silver wrapping paper and worked well. However they're not something I use often, and as I experienced more and more in droplets never used them again.

Thanks very much guys. Not done any of these for ages now! Thanks Di. I did/do love them, just not done any recently. Literally black food dye - nothing more interesting than that. It allows really good base reflections without being able to see through the water.

Nice shot!

I'm at 130,930 now :) Nice one! Also nice one! Lol. I joined 2009.

I've found out via flickr that it's due to the white balance I am using being below 2000k. So the Jpeg is spurted out correctly as a Jpeg is, but the RAW file can't be viewed with ACR when it's temperature is less than 2000k. Makes sense - and is really annoying :bonk: Edit: POsted at same time...
