Tap and Drop

I tried to do a moon shot tonight (a full moon), but although the shot turned out OK the moon was too small in the frame and not enough interest to post on here.

So I took my camera and tripod into the kitchen and tried to get a moving water drop

Well, the light was artificial and the macro switch setting on my sigma 70-300mm is OK, but it is not a dedicated macro, so it has it's limitations

So here you are ...Tap and Drop ...oh and black and white too !

[Constance Brinkley]

Almost looks like a barrel of a gun with a bullet shooting out...now that would be too scary. I will take the moving water drop out of the faucet!

[Kerri]

Awesome shot

[Pat Knowles]

Tap & drop is a great title Phil....I couldntbtell it was tap & drop but it's a pleasing black & white shot all the same!

[Phil Howcroft]

@happypat thanks Pat, the title sounds a bit like a pub name :)

@kerristephens cheers kerri

@seattle ohh yes constance, good shout :)

[Sue Wilde]

It does sound a little like the name of a pub, but it's a terrific shot nonetheless

[Hazel]

Good title and you have a shiny tap! I thought at very first view it could be a leg of a chair with a little swivel wheel on the end but now I can see what it is and appreciate the shot!

[Dione Giorgio]

Cool. I have never tried it myself. Bet it is very difficult to get it right.

[Phil Howcroft]

@sangwann just put the camera on multiple shots and click away dione...easy

[Phil Howcroft]

@quietpurplehaze ohh yes i see the leg of a chair hazel :-)

[Phil Howcroft]

@swilde thanks sue, you can get a drink too from the "tap and drip"

[Hazel]

@phil_howcroft

Oh that's good - I always worry about offending somebody, Phil!!!!!!!

[Al Bailey]

Excellent name for a pub! interesting shot that works well in b&w :)

[Phil Howcroft]

@willowdragon thanks Al, mines a glass of full bodied spicy rioja please :)

[Gena Pegg]

I can almost hear the drip from here! I agree with Al Bailey...hahahah!

[Frances Chaloner]

Great contrast of the hard unmoving metal of the tap and soft blury water drop
