face your fears

ref. 103
By request: In all my drop shots i use an infrared system(www.flickr.com/photos/joaoba/2080943379/in/set-7215760314...) to shoot the flashes in the right moment the drop fall in the water. The time of exposure is 2 seconds in a dark room. I throw the water with diferent recipients to create the splashes and the drops. The lens i use is a sigma 105mm with an -extension tube?- and i try to use f.22 to enlarge the focus area. In the photoshop i just saturate the colors and i crop the image ( i like the square form ). About the creation, first i decide the combination of colors and what will be the background and then i start to shoot until i get the perfect result.
If anyone wanna knows something else, let me know. My english is not so good but we can comunicate. :-)
