Water Droplet Photography

in #photographylovers3 years ago (edited)

I brought out my water droplet kit again to play as we are back in lockdown in the UK, so we can't really go far to take photos.

I decided to play with water, tinted with a little food colouring to start with...

Although I love the shape the above image has, the food colouring didn't really show up that well, so I decided to play around with some coloured card underneath the water bowl and behind it and got some really creative shots...

This next image reminded me of a planet with an incoming comet!

This final image is my favorite of the shoot. I love abstract photography/art, and this image combines both perfectly for me.

Feedback from the January 1st Hive Power Up Day

Very imaginative and creative images and pin sharp too 📷👍
What were your camera settings? Cool post. 👍

Thank you :) I was using a Nikon D610, a tamron 90mm macro lens, the aperture was at about F8 I think and I used a 3 second exposure in a dark room, using an off camera flash to capture the shot

Nicely done and thanks for the info

These are soooo cool! Don’t know how you can pick a fave as they’re so unique. I really need to try this technique and it looks like I’m being furloughed soon so should have time. Do you need any expensive equipment to do this?

Thank you sweet! I hope you are taking care to keep safe. No, you don't have to use expensive equipment, you can just use a dripping tap if you wanted to. I do have the miops splash kit, but I have done some water droplet photos before just using my camera, a flash and a dripping tap :)

Incredible!

Thank you so much ☺️

would make brilliant album cover!

These are v. cool! You should maybe check out the Lightpainters United community on the Hive for more stuff like this!

Thank you! Just trying to get back into photography and blogging again, but struggling to find the time for creating. Life is hectic! I love your work, I defo need to spend more time on here checking out other peoples art, it is so inspiring 🤩

Thanks, the surprising thing for me starting this Hive thing was how much I liked to write the blog bit and how it improved my written English :-)
