This is my tribute to Sabine (wishnugaruda.) I have always admired her water shots. I haven't had a chance to go out with the camera for the last few weeks (a combination of a nasty eye infection and lately visiting a friend) so when Sabine started posting water drop in bubble shots this inspired me try this myself.

I took the non-technical approach blowing a bubble on top of a glass and then just dropping water through it using an eye dropper. I used just the on camera flash and also a seperate lamp (only one as I dropped the other lamp and broke the bulb!) I used a reflector on the other side to bounce some of the light back on the other side.

I used a 100 mm macro lens
