Macro 1st Attempt at Water Drops

1st Attempt at Water Drops · 09:15 PM

My first try at water drop photography. Processed in LR4. Need to get in a bit tighter and get a different pan since the company logo found its way in. I think the drops were a little small. I'm gonna try again and fix what I learned. All in all I'm happy with the first try and it was fun, if not a little addicting.

Nice sharp focus is required for water drop shots and you achieved that.

Interesting. This is something I have never tried. I have seem many attempts, your vivid colouring really adds something extra.

I had the flash hitting a red notebook cover for the top two (and tweaked the color pink for one of the images). Used a gold reflector for the 3rd and punched more gold into it via LR4. Looks a bit like liquid gold, I thought.
