Water Droplet Photography

(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.

Let me know what you think of the images in the comments!

Much love, C and the Bulldogs xx

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

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 :)

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 :-)
