Playin in the water by bluemoon

Playin in the water

Ok, this is the most fun I've had in a while! After seeing all the great waterdrop shots on here I just had to try it. I had no idea what I was doing...tried several different ways but always ended up pretty blah so I took a pretty piece of wrapping paper and put it in the back of the sink, turned on the water and grabbed the camera. This was the best of the bunch....more practice to follow! How fun!
This is absolutely amazing :) I love the colors of the wrapping paper behind! Favd

November 23rd, 2010  
This turned out great!! Thanks for sharing how you did it... I'll have to try something like that sometime!! :)
November 23rd, 2010  
Thanks so much for the feedback everyone! This is so much fun and I'd have never in a million years thought of doing something like this before coming here. I was always looking for the big, awesome landscapes or the perfect portraits of kids & pets....never dawned on me you could take crazy pictures of water or stuff laying around the house! This has really opened up a whole new world for me. If there's no color in your world, create some!! :) Thanks for all the inspiration!
