For those photo geeks on the forum I thought I'd share my attempt at doing some drop shots! Using an old hacked vivitar thyristor flash to make it fast and some wood stain as well as some green dye to get this shot......what do you think guys? maybe better without the bubbles lol? Takes a bit of faffing about to even get to this point but comments both good and bad welcome

I had a bit of a muck around with the sink tap running slowly.
Meant to get back to it and have a better go but ever have.
Thanks for the inspiration.

Obviously I need to work on background and exposures etc but it was just for the hell of it.

Check out the canon forum and do a search for crowns. That's what they refer to them as.
Also do a search for refractions, that will blow your mind Smile and probably cost you some time getting them right .

Bloody nice work too.
I've seen them use glass bowls with coloured lights under them or using dye in the water.

Did I mention that I really like your effort Smile
