Viva Cuba Libre
Photographed this right after the beginning of the water drop collision. I used a Cuban flag because of the vibrant colors as my bg and bounced 2 strobes off a white foam core placed in the back of the dripping tray.
MIII - f/16 - 0.5 sec - ISO 500 - 180mm - Manual Mode - Tripod - flash output 1/64
I cleaned up a couple of stragglers in pp.
Thanks for looking.
Hey Susan,
I don't think people can appreciate how difficult getting those bold colors in the water really is! The Cuban flag really comes through there and the little star in the drop puts this one over the top! You are the queen of the water drops!
Fabulous technical and aesthetic shot. BG colours look good and the PP is VWD. Congrats.
Susan, this is really outstanding composition. Excellent bg colors and approach. TFS.
Thanks so much for taking the time to look and share your comments. I highly appreciate them.
Hi Susan, another intensely interesting image with alot of effort put forth. These take knowhow and I like how you strive to keep coming up with different ways of presentation. This one succeeded nicely. Well done!
Susan, this is an amazing image! All that detail and color painted on water as still as glass makes for a stunning presentation. The light angle is remarkable as well. Excellent work!

Hey D,
Nice to see u back. Thx for your feedback. It is much appreciated.
Susan, this is way cool - I echo the comments above :)
Best,
Nicki
Susan,
This is brilliant! (Nicki, is it OK for a Yankee to use brilliant in this context?:))
Truly OOTB creativity. The only thing I could offer is a crop suggestion.
I love symmetry. That said, I feel a little off the left, with a tad more room at the top would make this an even stronger image.
I've been motivated to give this a try!
Thanks again for the feedback. I really appreciate it.
