    Wow, pretty impressive for not using a high speed strobe! This obviously took some time.

    That is really cool. I want to try something like that but I am afraid I don't have the patience.

    This is something I haven't been able to quite figure out yet. It might be time to give it another go. Thanks for showing the setup shot.

    Cool pictures,
    I can remember doing something similar by dropping a ball into milk.

    On your set up shot how did you hang the puritan water bottle up, I seen the ribbon,
    Also Should remove the dishes. nothing major.
    Back to the bottle of water how did you get it to drip?
    Feel Free to edit my photos, However please explain what you did to them.

    I just used a spring clamp to hold the string to the upper edge of the cabinet, as for the dishes, I had it cleaned up before, and during the process, wife and two kids in the house, they grew back! The hole was difficult! At first I just poked a hole in the bottom with a drill bit, that was way too big. Got another bottle and used a pin this time, found out you also must have a hole in the top also. Had to adjust it a few times with tape but finally got it to drip the way I wanted, I thought, as the water level in the bottle dropped, the drip got slower and that's when I started to get really good shots. It took a little time, but it was hot out and the lawn needed mowing, I was very happy to stay inside and play with my camera.
