    I think it's excellent. It's an area that I would like to get into sometime (when I buy a macro lens maybe). How did you set it up?

    the set up was as follows:-
    Tripod set up in kitchen, D70 mounted on top with the following lens: Sigma 50mm f/2.8 EX Macro for Nikon, Filled a bowl of water, set camera close enought and set a focus area, used a Remote control then just dipped my hand in the water and took repeated shots of the drips hitting the water in the bowl, checked the output and repeated for about 300 shots,

    In Adobe elements 3.0 i took the RAW file, cropped what i wanted, saved as a jpg, ran through Neat Image, back in PS elements, adjusted levels, brightness, contrast, colour adjustments, sharpen, USM and removed some final noise to get the finised shot.

    Very nice. Looks a lot more digital than it is.

    Would love to see the original too!
