Been a while posting any pictures. Hard to get motivated in the weather we've been having, so took some time to play in the tub. I hope you enjoy.

Cool. It would be awesome if you can find a way to get this shot without all the business in the background picked up by the water drop - or better yet - something really interesting. Still, quite a feat and a good shot.

Done well. A good, sharp result.
matiki says right about the background - it becomes more of a visual focus than the waterdrop itself.

Thanks for the comments. I see where your coming from with the stuff in the background, but funny thing is I thought it was just kind of neat to see that something was actually captured like that. Never really played with something like that before. I'll have to give background more thought next time I'm playing in the tub.

Don't put yourself there !

Great shot, crystal clear as others said already. And great timing! How many did you spoil before getting one right?

I think I took about 20 shots. Of those I kept 3 of them. This was the one I was most pleased with. Most of the shots only showed the spout of the tub with nothing else.

Outstanding effort!The background in the water drop is a learning curve for yourself,but to me it's a technicality.
