Description

AV 5.6, TV 1/80, EFS 18-55mm kit lens. Shot with 2 daylight incandescent lamps at the side of the camera aimed at a white backdrop behind a black dish filled with about 3/4 inches of water. Used a tiny funnel with a needle down the spout to regulate the water drops. Now I know what others went through to get a shot like this.
