I hope that I can upgrade soon to the 7RII a better macro lens and some Mitutoyo microscope lenses and maybe some studio flashlights. For now: A77, tamron 272 ES, 2x YN560 III, Stackshot.
The setup for the milk photos (just milk and milk + chocolate), on some the 430EX was on the left as pictured, for others it was on the right. The height of the milk also changed to try to get different angles.
I didn't use any automatic triggers, just a lot of takes! :) I used my daughter's baby bottle to make the drops.
This is a setup from a Shoot I had the other night. AB800 Boomed Dished/Socked, ABR800/30"MU below. SB28DX's back left/right. SB600 w/ homemade black straw grid at background. Fired with V2s / built in AB optical slaves. Actual shots from this set to come.
Setup for This Shot

Outdoor Concert Setup Kellie Pickler concert,road crew setting up for an evening show, I happened to stumble on it while to shoot a sign, found in North Carolina.
This is a picture of the lighting setup that I used today to photograph hummingbirds at my sister and brother-in-law's house. The light stand at the back is to put light on the sky colored background that my wife painted for this purpose. The other 4 light stands have a total of 5 strobes all pointed at the right side of the red hummingbird feeder. I put tape over the holes on the left side of the feeder so that the birds would only feed from the holes on the right side. Down below in the first comment you can see one of the pictures I took using this setup.
Some people find these setup shots helpful so I've created an album with some of them. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/albums/72157642517882554

Hi All
I have promised this for quite awhile....and hear it is.....my setup.
The main framework is black steel pipe threaded into flanges screwed to some plywood I had laying around. I monted the valve, syphon and eye on scrap wood. The wood is held in place using spring clamps and extra little slivers of wood for leveling. I know the tray looks odd...thats because it is. Its actually a "boot tray"...you know, the ones people put their boots in by the back door. This tray is about 28' X 14" and is the best secret for infinite BG's. Because there are ridges in the bottom of the tray, i have a piece of plexi laying in it and then the whole thing is put in a plastic garbage bag........I know...I have way to much time to think of these things. The tray works well and is only about $2 from the dollar store. There is plexi behind the tray that is held by shelving brackets. The 2 speedlights are on clamps on a light stand. The electronic control is to camera left with everything wired into it. This is the Stop Shot system and I believe...at least for me that it works well. You will also see other things like gels for the flashes, Jet Dry for the water, a jug of dyed water for the syphon and aot of other bits and pieces. I didn't clean it up and make it pretty for the picture...why not see reality. Check out the notes for more details. For those new to this, the shots are taken in near darkness, the programmed number of drips are released, trip the eye and beging the countdown to the flashes firing....all of this take about 1/3 of a second and is done with the shutter open. thats why the metadata reads aout 1'.
Enjoy and once again, thanks everyone for your encouragement and comments.

Added later....the 2 speedlights are set at approx 1/16 power and each gelled a different colour.
The paintbrush is for getting bubbles and other floaties out of the frame.
There have been some questions. Thats why I addd the flash & paintbrush info.
It took a while to get that swamp woman shot right. The four smaller pics are all early shots that I wasn't satisfied with. The bright background makes the swamp seem shallow, like a stage set. A cool effect but not what I wanted here (would be cool for other pics tho). Adding the walled backdrop of her enclosure really helped (seems so obvious in hindsight). Also I wanted to frame the figure more so I used some black slopes and plates (arrows in top pciture) to gently funnel the eye toward the figure with lines. Then two small LED lights to catch some highlights.
Even with the final setup, it still takes many photos to get everything right; some foreground plants but not too many, no gaps in the backdrop, etc.
It's hard to see but there's a viewing window in the back there. I tried to get two SCP Foundation staff staring at the creature but getting their faces in the shot was a headache so I gave up on that.
Many people asked me about my setup. I hope the picture helps
