I love the "Toadstool" form that you have captured in no7. They are all cracking shots. But I particularly love 9 and 10. They are stunning and would'nt look out of place hanging at an art exhibition.

Possible contenders for the next POTY comp perhaps??

thanks guys,

I really love no. 10 too, the incredible thing is that it all kind of works out under the laws of physics so everything is repeatable, with just a change by a few thousands of a second you can get a different moment in the life of a dropped droplet & follow it all the way through.

It might be cool to make a time lapse video with loads of shots showing the whole process.... I can feel another project coming on.

Great shots Cathus.
What`s this timer system and beam set up then. A DIY effort or commercially available. I`m looking for something like that or triggered by sound but lack the basic DIY skills needed.
