A spoonful of splashes by vikdaddy

A spoonful of splashes

It's so windy outside at the moment. It's not the weather for an outdoor shoot, so I tried another water shot indoors.

I processed this using the same customised settings I used for a few other shots recently, including the last water shot I did on day 259. I've even saved these settings as my own preset in Lightroom, as I really like the way it looks when I apply it to water shots.

I only have a week left at my current workplace. I can't wait to leave now. I spoke to the gentleman that interviewed me for my new job this afternoon too, just to catch up before I start on February 14th. It was nice to talk to him and get to know a bit more about what I'll be doing and the team, and just to get the reassurance that there's no hitches before I start. I was also told I'll get a brand new laptop and BlackBerry, which will be so nice after the prehistoric laptop and BlackBerry I currently use for work!

Canon 7D, f/2.8, 1/200, ISO-100

Very cool! I can't wait to have a camera that can take shot of something moving. LoL My point and shoot would have made all of this look like a big blur. Haha! This is fantastic and I love the composition.
