cromwell1664877587 0 Posted February 6, 2006 I started out with a yellow happy face and multiplied it in photoshop, making others different colors. I then made a print, put it under a bowl of water, and shot away. The only manipulation is some tiny spots cloned out of the water. I hope you enjoy it. Link to comment
doeke 0 Posted February 6, 2006 Amazing! 7/7 BTW. The top dropplet somehow instantly reminded me of the Amiga Ball. (Amiga Rule(s/d)!) Link to comment

davidmccracken 2 Posted February 6, 2006 I just wonder how long it took you to get this result. I am glad they are all happy faces. This one made me smile! Link to comment
skip hansen 0 Posted February 6, 2006 Excellent catch! Care to contribute a few technical details...lighting, exposure, etc.? Link to comment
cromwell1664877587 0 Posted February 6, 2006 Thanks everybody for the comments. David, I took a little over a 1000 shots and this was number 415. It kind of seems like a ridiculous amount, doesn't it?:) I ended up with quite a few that are about as good as this one. Skip - 1/100 sec., f13, iso200. The paper that I used was more behind the bowl than directly underneath it, so I had a 580ex flash firing from the side directly down to the paper without going through any water. I had a 430ex firing from the other side straight across, level with the water. Both flashes were firing at 1/16 power. Link to comment
billfoster 0 Posted February 7, 2006 A great addition to a great series. I love the reflections in the two balls one the end and the distorted faces at the base of the drop. Link to comment
