Drip

My attempt to 1. freeze action with a fast shutter speed and 2. begin the "Flash of Red" February b&w challenge. I was working indoors on a grey day, so this was as fast as I could get without too much dark. Even so, I had to do some processing to bring up tones. An interesting exercise, shot on manual settings. No need to comment, as this is a "homework" type of shot.

Thanks for hanging with me, as 2015 continues to be a year to grow with my skills.

Exposure: 0.0031 sec (1/320)
Aperture: f/2.8
ISO Speed: 1600

Fantastic! I've yet to get a good water drop shot no matter how often I try!

Well done, and a twofer too :)

[Denise (lyndemc)]

Ya don't realize how fast a droplet falls until you try to catch it with a shutter button. Good job here!

[Yolanda]

Fantastic Rosie, good catch
