Challenge: Stopped Motion (Classic Editing)
Camera: Canon Digital IXUS v2
Location: My Room, Dundee
Date: Apr 8, 2002
Aperture: F/7.3
ISO: -
Shutter: 1/60
Date Uploaded: Apr 11, 2002

 Taken in a make shift studio set up in my room. I soaked a towel in water and hung it from the ceiling, letting the water drip down into a glass on the floor. I then took 100's of photos resulting in about 6 or so pictures that were both in focus and dead sharp. It took me a whole week to make my mind up which photo to use in the end.

Nice shot, though the 5 smaller drops to the right is very distracting.

I love the reflection in the drop of water. Something seems out of focus though.

Great close-up. I just can't stay here because I don't see any thing that draws me to the picture. sorry

Cliche.

Ver nice, clean, clear drop.
 04/18/2002 09:36:00 PM
i like the way the hanging drop seems to fear taking the jump.
 04/18/2002 09:24:00 PM
i like that it's got towel in it, there's more stuff to look at than just water, it frames it nicely.

The drop in the back is blurry and distracting.
 04/18/2002 06:01:00 AM
This is unusual. You stopped the motion well and I like the reflection off of the water droplet. A slightly different lighting to get rid of the shadows would improve the photo.
 04/17/2002 10:06:00 PM
better contrast would have made this a better b&w
 04/17/2002 01:10:00 PM
blooop! that is what i hear when i look at this picture : )

Hey, cool! This is a different take on the liquid shots. Black & white is good for this one.
 04/16/2002 09:41:00 AM
nice shot, works well in B&W
 04/16/2002 06:32:00 AM
The detail on the larger drop is amazing -- but the rest of the image is pretty mundane. Tighter crop on the water?

well done on capturing this shot - good macro and the focus is sharp ... next step is to soften the lighting and get rid of the shadows.
 04/15/2002 01:43:00 PM
Nice looken drop.
 04/15/2002 10:01:00 AM
water.. go figure
 04/15/2002 09:16:00 AM
I like this one.

I like the wet towel! I wish the secondary droplets on the right were a little more in focus. If a had managed to conjure up this idea on my own, I may have formed a rat-tail out of the towel and shot with vertical framing to better fill the image frame. Nice shot!
 04/15/2002 08:30:00 AM
cool droplets
 04/15/2002 07:44:00 AM
Water, Water Everywhere !
 04/15/2002 06:44:00 AM
Nice B&W study.
 04/15/2002 06:03:00 AM
I love it, what's it dripping from? I love the drops in the background along with the front drop starting to fall. Perfect timing.
 04/15/2002 04:46:00 AM
right before the drop. i like it!
