Hey, everyone :)
Here's a plum blossom for you!
I hope you like that picture. Yesterday I went on a little tour with my camera and took photos of lady bugs :)
I'll upload a few of them the next weeks!

Maybe I should have left this for St. Patrick's Day. I can always do another :-)
Red food colouring in the drop and a yellow and lime green gel on the rear flash.

Update - March 15, 2013: These set-ups are very out-dated. I have just finished an Ebook - The Ultimate Guide to Water Drop Photography. The link to purchase is on my Facebook Page. It is very detailed from beginner to advanced.

I am posting these sample drops and settings for new drip kit users. These are all done with The Time Machine and the The Drip Kit.
The settings for these are only a starting point. I have tried to recreate a certain drop and the flash lag may be different. Factors affecting these settings are the water level, the distance from valve to water in the tray, additives to the water, temperature of the water, etc., etc.
For these larger drop sizes, you'd better move the camera back - a lot of these are very tall and some are completely out of the frame. Larger drops produce a lot of stray drops, which sometimes result in some interesting effects. I do not get a lot of repetition with these larger drops using water - almost every drop is a different shape.
For these, I measured out 250 m. of water for the reservoir and made a line on the side to keep it at this point. There is a level indicator on the reservoir but it is not visible from the side. Distance from valve tip to water in the drip tray is 48 cm. The depth of water in the tray is 44 mm. I used plain water with some food colouring. Distance from camera lens to the drop is about 65 cm. Any variations in this is going to result in a different splash.

One thing to remember - the larger the drop - the shorter the interval time. These larger drops come down quickly and after they enter the water the rebounding spout comes up extremely fast. One of the unique aspects of this Drip Kit is the ability to make large drops.
I have not had a lot of luck with drops size 80 and over. They are completely wild!
The differences in lighting are a result of two flashes behind the red ones and with the blue splashes, I have one behind and one directly in front.
After speaking to someone who is more of an expert on insects it's either Dolichopus popularis or Poecilobothrus nobilitatus ( female ) probably my favourite fly to photograph , i just love the colours something you just don't notice with the naked eye .

I made a decision concerning my photos. I don't have much money and I think my photos may deserve a little bit more than just being on my external hard drive.
So...
You can buy them now.
I made a lot of my photos exclusively available at 500px. You can buy a license (Royalty-Free or for Web/Social) and have fun with them :D
If you're interested, please browse through my photostream here at Flickr. Pictures I'm selling got a "Buy this photo"-link at the beginning of the description.
You can browse my shop at 500px directly as well.
In case you would like to buy a photo which isn't listed in my store, please just write a message :)
It's weekend!!
Have a nice time and enjoy it :)
A perfectly captured close-up of a walnut in a nutcracker, highlighting their functional harmony. The texture of the walnut shell contrasts beautifully with the metallic sheen of the nutcracker, showcasing the perfect pairing of tool and purpose. This image tells a simple yet powerful story of how two things come together for a single task.
With this year coming to a close and the weather being overwhelmingly disappointing, I decided to look through my archives.
In the following weeks I will post some new macro images that I never came around to posting.
I was trying something different with bubbles. These really affect the shape of the drop. I now have red food dye in my hair from getting too close to the drops.
Drops of cream, food dye and acrylic paint. Experimenting with liquids.
It was fascinating to watch the paint interacting with the cream on the magnified live-view feature.

I'm disappointed the numbers are faded in this but they are still visible.

Factors affecting these settings are the water level, the distance from valve to water in the tray, additives to the water, temperature of the water, etc., etc. Small drops like most of these are fairly stable and you get a lot of repetition, however, with the larger drops you get a lot of stray drops and a variety of shapes.

Centered, present, unafraid.
This daisy doesn’t seek attention — it simply exists, complete in its own geometry.
A portrait of presence, taken in the moment after rain, in the moment before silence.
This final image from Whispers in Magenta returns to stillness, where all motion once began.

I say love, it is a flower
And you, it's only seed....
www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTCQBuYhq_s
Some say love, it is a river
That drowns the tender reed
Some say love, it is a razor
That leaves your soul to bleed
Some say love, it is a hunger
An endless aching need
I say love, it is a flower
And you, it's only seed
It's the heart, afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance
It's the dream, afraid of waking
That never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
Who cannot seem to give
And the soul, afraid of dying
That never learns to live
When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed
That with the sun's love, in the spring
Becomes the rose
