Most of them are a soft, and quite a few of them are crooked. Try coloring the water with food coloring instead of gelling the flash.

The sharpness I can agree on (something I will keep working on, as it was a personal disappointment.); when working so close with a macro lens, it is not easy to get everything in the DOF. The crookedness however, just comes from the way the drops were coming. The camera was leveled with a bubble level; the odd directions comes from the sink, and the drops sometimes getting thrown off to the left or right. I do need to get a better method of drop delivery (which will then let me use the food coloring.

Number 9 is my favorite.

Good stuff sir.

Thanks buddy! [thumbup]
