Splish, splash

[Fumesucker]

So I was playing with a "new" strobe setup I got, this unit has variable power and when I turn it down to 1/16 the flash is very quick, probably on the order of 1/10,000 sec or so.

This is the result of setting up a drip of water into a bowl and a foam cup full of water and freezing the splashes with my new flash, kind of a combination macro and stop motion photography.I didn't have any kind of motion trigger so I just timed the shutter presses as best I could, only about ten percent of my pictures had something interesting in them but those were worth the effort.

4. BEAUTIFUL!

And inspirational. They freeze a fraction of a moment in time that we would never be able to witness otherwise. Thanks!
