I had some of that same amazement when I saw Martin Waugh’s website of his work. I bought a photo trigger kit, borrowed a friends Nikon SB600 (sacrilege!) and froze myself in January taking photos out in the garage (my first photos on Flickr). I wanted better so I bought a bunch of external flash gear to do properly composed drops…. and haven’t done it again for over a year and a half. Someday, someday…

I remember when you set up that project in the bathroom; you really did get good results. I think some of your photos are still around here somewhere.So glad that Anthony found it interesting,,,,even if only to a point. You were ten years older than he when you did this. He’ll remember it, I’m sure.

So, it seems that the Japanese milk is like Firefox. And we Americans are drinking Microsoft Milk. “Hey this milk tastes funny!” No, actually this milk tastes like milk. What you are drinking tastes funny.

Jeff,

There was a posting with a couple of videos on Strobist.com this week about photographing water drops. They used a high speed camera to get the splash in motion.

The second video on the page was professionally produced and is very good.

It's just like a nice coincidence that you did this nice photo ! Last week the Strobist wrote a nice article on "How to Photograph Water Drops with One Speedlight ". I would like to try it myself but didn't found time now. Here is that page on Strobist blog.
