Water Drop Photography Tips

Filed Under: Photography

I think water drop photography is gorgeous. I saw these some photographs where they draped a piece of fabric behind the sink and it showed up in the water drop. I thought that was amazing. Check out these water drop photography tips.

Water Drop Photography Tips

Water Drop Photography Tips

Set your sink to a very slow drip and then put up your favorite fabric behind it.

Use a tripod to keep the camera steady and a remote so you can watch when the water is doing to drop.

You will want a very fast shutter speed around 1/400 and an aperture of f/4 or f/5.

    I would love to try this, I have a shoot and click camera, with a macro setting, do you think it is possible to do it? Cheers

    I love it! I love the bold background and how the pattern only shows through the water drop. Very, very cool!

    That is so freaking cool! I clicked on the link to read on to do it, but I don't have a macro lens. Can you use a macro setting wit the same ISO/F-stop settings?

      February 23, 2012 at 1:21 pm

      Maybe. You could try that. I didn't use my macro lens. I used my fixed lens. Definitely worth trying.

Our last 1st tooth loss. 😢 She is our youngest Our last 1st tooth loss. 😢 She is our youngest kid to lose their first tooth.

It’s been loose for awhile, but when she bit a lollipop at school today it became super loose and started bleeding. Then she was crying. I went to pick her up and by the time I had gotten there she had pulled it out, it had stopped bleeding, and she had stopped crying. Still can’t believe she is old enough to be losing teeth. 🦷
