Well, call me obsessed- but I worked on my water drops again.
Today, I could concentrate on focus, because yesterday I had already figured out how to use my gorillapod/chair to steady the camera and that flash doesn’t work too well for me in this situation (my on camera flash limits my shutter speed to 1/200- I needed FASTER!). Next time, I will experiment with better lighting and a patterned background. The blue splotch you see in the drop is Dawn dishwashing detergent!
300mm, 1/1000, f5.6, ISO 2000

Water is my favorite thing to photograph. This is incredible. It has great focus and composition (love the bokeh-like drops) and the color is perfect. The blue Dawn bottle made a nice reflection and the sort of mauve background makes the entire composition appear to be from a Martian landscape. “Alien Droplet” is right on!
Awesome shot.
