[QUOTE="Bob Blaylock, post: 414664, member: 16749"] I wasn't happy to see this topic come up. Alas, it's beginning to feel too much like an overused cliché, using my flash to catch splashes of water. I didn't figure I was going to try to come up with anything for yet another exercise in stopping motion. So, it's a gloomy, rainy day, and I'm looking out my window, seeing drops falling from the edge of a parking space cover outside, and decided to see what I could catch. I mount my ancient [url=http://nikonites.com/education/25599-aperture-depth_of_field-relationship-nikkor-s-50mm-f1-4-a.html]50mm ƒ/1.4 non-AI Nikkor[/url] to my D3200, and go outside. Out of over two hundred and fifty shots, I got this one, that I found worthwhile, of an interesting formation of falling drops, with the background refracted therein. No flash, just my shutter at its top speed, 1/4000 of a second. The lens was probably wide open at ƒ/1.4, though I cannot now say for sure, as I took some pictures at different settings, and since this is an ancient, non-CPU lens, the aperture setting is not stored among the EXIF data.
