Tiny drops make a mighty splash!!


I've been wanting to try this drip-drop photography for sometime. But the sheer thought of getting my patience tested put me off. But today, with absolutely zilch to do, I got myself determined to try my hand at this. So got the setup ready; a dripping faucet, and an utensil below to catch the drops. I knew it wasn’t going to be easy. Put the cam on Manual Exposure mode and in continuous firing mode and started clicking away. I must have easily taken around 50 shots, but they were all disappointing and the thought of giving up crept in. Just tried another round, and this time I had one good looking shot. Oh Boy!! Was I excited..??!! :)  
Hope to keep improving on this. It needs oodles and oodles of patience. Practice makes perfect, indeed!!
