This was a bit of a challenge for me...getting a fast enough shutter speed and still enough light without blowing out the ISO....and I would have liked to have underexposed it a bit more for the black background. If you view on black, you'll see how gray this is rather than black....Any suggestions????
For the current b&w challenge - drops and / or bubbles. Also works for week 3 of the 52-week dogwood challenge: black & white!
If you increase the contrast, the grey will become black (or use curves in photoshop). There is less detail in the drop and the tap then too. I imagine it is difficult to get a see through drop to show up well in black and white but I might be wrong. I have same issues with lighting and ISO
@helenhall Thanks...I will really have to spend more time learning PS! And probably have to some day invest in an off-camera flash. (by the way, it wasn't a tap, but an eye-dropper, which added more complications..in how to squeeze the drop out w/o moving the dropper!)
