Hi Friends
Maybe there's a lot of you who already tried this out, but for the ones that did not do it yet, here's how I did this.
I took a bowl full of clean water, put a coloured paper underneth it, the colour of your choice.
Set up my D70, with 18-70 kit lens, SB800 flash, and remote shutter for this job.
Then I took a little bit of milk, and let it drop, then you need to practice the timing, just before the drop enters the water.You don't need a very fast shutterspeed, but you can play around with it.
It creates beautiful images, and it's fun to do.
Hope you enjoy the photo, and have fun trying it out.
Cheers
Jan

STunning. I've never tried it but for sure will. Fantastic colour.

Very nice experiment, Yan.

Very well done, Jan,
I love your pink crown very much, good sharpness and pretty colours.
I would be interested in the Info of the shot - which time/exposure do you use. I also do things like this, so thanks for sharing yours, I like it
