with the background chosen to portray the pinks and the greens i was looking out for a creative shape. Started with adjusting the background and the camera positions first. Oncei got the frame correct i placed 4 speed lights to illuminate the background since i work in a dark room to avoid ambient light. After confirming for good exposure in my sample shot with all flashes fired in sync i start playing with drops. when there is a collision between 3 drops of water i get such unexpected shapes like a dolphin playing with a ball in the actual water drop and a ballet dancer dancing in tune with music in the reflection of the same drop on the water surface. NO PHOTOSHOP. camera canon 600 D, Lens Canon 100 mm Macro L 2.8
