First attempt with new dropper [Original Photography]

over 4 years ago (Edited)

Hi guys

So here is the first attempt with the new dropper hardware (see here). Single flash to the right on remote with a blue gel and a bit of contrast and postprocessing. The liquid is just milk which is a bit too thin and falls apart when aiming for higher-bounce drops

Next, I'll be doing water thickened with Xanthan gum to hopefully get some really cool shapes and adding food colouring to mix the colours up a bit.

Might even do a video and some slow-motion video with the 90D if I can get enough light on the subject.

Thanks for looking

This is so awesome. I have wanted to learn how to do this for so long now.

Thanks Wes. I remember doing this about 15 years ago with a 20D in a dark room with a flash and a really rubbish photogate that would detect when the water drop fell threw it. I kept blowing them up. Was rubbish. This is a load easier.
