Photo: Droplet

Camera: Pentax *ist DL
Lens: Sigma 70-300mm (at 300mm on macro)
Shutterspeed: 1/180s
Aperture: f5.6
Flash deployed at minimum flash compensation (-2 stops).

Without a digital camera I would never had attempted a shoot like this. I got a tap dripping steadily, and then fired at it using the on-camera flash to freeze the motion. I got literally 30 pictures of absolutely nothing, having fired just before or just after the drop fell. But I got a whole bunch of variations of the tiny splash too. There is infinite mystery in something so deceptively trivial. I love the camera for teaching me that!
