Today I tried to shoot water droplets and milk droplets using strobes. It's very tricky as I dont have proper tripod or light-stand.
I had to drop the droplets one by one using a spoon with my hand and the other hand is on the camera to press the shuter release.
Problem is that the droplets wont go exactly to the places as i planned. Using my hand is very bad idea. So they are out of focus most of the time. And my cheap starblitz flash wont rapid-fire and I have literally once chance to capture per drop.
But generally an interesting experiment.
I cant wait to get my hands on C1 remote, ST-E2 , camera tripod , light-stand + umbrellas to complete my Strobist set-up.
One step at a time huh..
Wait for Round 2 here.
Cheers.
P.S. Strobist info, 430ex at 1/2 power on camera bounced to the top right wall and one Starblitz 250 at 1/4 power directly behind, shoot through a white shopping bag. Lens is EFS 18-55 Kit Lens with +2 and +4 close-up filters on it.
