Water II

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Revisited with a darker room.

My D70's shutter appears to be sticking now :( Started happening tonight. Every second frame then got worse. Seems to happen in bursts now.
Last night, now I think of it, the camera wasn't firing every now and then. But that was complete not firing (as if I hadn't pressed the shutter button).

Much better contrast than the first series.

Would like to see #3 from a much lower angle.

Do you use a sound trigger, do you guestimate or other to get the shot?

I have similar issues with my D70s when the battery starts going flat.. i am assuming that my battery is on its way out and once i charge it is seems fine... might be the same issue for you...?

I guestimate, but the drips are reasonably regular from the cup so it's not too hard.

Will sort a lower angle series soon.

Will try a different battery.

Nick - whilst i'm not 100% sure, I would imagine that these images would sell well with a stock photography company, especially in the age of the drought we are living in. Sell em to Getty for a few hundred each :) :)

Much better this time, how about a little more crop down into the drops so they can stand out more from the frame?
