SLW Challenge: SplishSplash - DripDrop


One more post before I'm off for a vacation in Western Australia (I probably won't be able to post again before the beginning of March so I thought a little extra something might be appreciated...)
I'm really planning to take some pictures of the food there (something I usually forget on a trip as we're always very hungry and start shoveling in once it's served). However, since we're not planning any hiking tours and are heading for some gourmet areas instead (the wineries in Margret River, for example) there might be a possibility to pay a bit more photographic attention. Meanwhile I'd like to show you with what I've been amusing myself this week. The monthly challenge of my food photography flickr group StillLifeWith was SplishSplash - DripDrop. Really quite a challenge - it took me a while to get any shot at all. Apart from the technical side of capturing such a quick movement, one would not think how difficult it is to aim with a grape for a glass of milk while looking through the viewfinder... By the way, most of the milk was splashed for decoration but the last grape thrown with full force really made quite a mess... You can see more splash pictures on my flickr page!

I'd just looked at the Flickr group before I read your post--I loved your milk group. The last one is a milk tsunami!

Thank you! I enjoyed myself immensely while making such a mess...;-) Alas, in terms of technical perfection, my slightly out-of-focus milk drops can't quite compete with the creations of all the other SLW-members. But I will give it another go!
