Mark, thanks, no they're untouched (apart from cropping and levels).

Once you have the timing, it's just a question of putting a picture behind and the water drops refract the picture.

Stunning work, Garry! They are all simply amazing, and I imagine you must have to been so patient to get the shot too! I love the colours, the clarity and just the whole effect really.

Fantastic shots, looks like that trigger system was well worth the investment oh I am so tempted after seeing these shots.

Very creative work.

thanks all,

Dave, I'm really only scratching the surface with the trigger system at the moment. I never seem to have enough time to get really into the nuts and bolts of it all.
