You may have seen impressive photos of a drop of water hitting the surface and the ripples of water coming from it, each touched with just the right amount of light. While these set-ups take time, they are achievable even by amateur photographers. The trick is having the right camera, knowing how to use it and perfect timing. After some practice, you will have your own water light ripple picture that you can add to your portfolio.
Instructions
- 1
Screw the macro lens onto your camera.
2Attach your camera to a tripod.
3Place the metal pan on a counter or table and fill it with water.
4Set up your camera and tripod in front of the pan.
5Attach your external flashes to tripods and position one behind the pan and one to the right of it.
6Prop up the cutting board behind the pan, in front of the external flash.
7Set your camera's flash exposure compensation to one of its lowest settings to freeze the motion of the drop when the photo is taken. This process is different depending on what type of camera you use and how much natural light you have in the room. Refer to your camera's user manual for detailed instructions.
8Adjust your camera to 100 ISO, f10.0 to f14.0 and exposure of 1/250 settings.
9Focus the camera to where the drop will be in the pan.
10Time the external flashes to go off when the camera's shutter goes off.
11Set your camera to burst mode or action mode so it will take multiple images. This will improve your chances of getting a picture of the drop of water just at the right time. Set the timer on your camera.
12Fill the water dropper with water and hold it 30 to 60 centemeters above the surface of the water.
13Drop water drops into the pan when your camera starts taking photos by gently squeezing the bulb of the eyedropper or turkey baster.
