Paula, Danny, thanks a million.

I’m interested to see the feedback this got over some of the other photographs. Makes me wonder what draws people out to leave remarks.

I want to experiment some more with stuff like this but I really don’t know what I want to photograph lately.

Thanks a mil for the linkback Treasa. Love the texture (if that’s the word) and colour in this shot. Like Richard, I must experiment a bit more with stuff like this.

Hiya Treasa, Cool shot! Love the framing effect of the outers swirls, and the fantastic detail in the water.

I probably ran up the blackslider a little in Adobe RAW but can’t think of anything much else. And yes, it’s a metal sink. I imagine the fact that there’s a tiny little bit of blue gel stuck to my flash may have added to it though.

Thanks both of you by the way.

Great shot Treasa, I really like it. Did you do much processing on it? The colours are great, were they caused by the metal sink?

Hi Richard,

I have rather a water fetish thing going between the sea shots and other miscellaneous games with stuff dripping.

I have plans involving water, red food colouring and a broken wine glass too….I need to have a little fun with the camera soon.

Hey Treasa,

thanks for the trackback! I really like your shot, its nicely full of life and complexity. Last week I was judging a photo competition for the Ballyfermot CC, and one of their entries was a tryptich of water drops shots, those and now your shot have given me some ideas that I’ll be trying out soon!
