    Great setup and I like the use of water and colored lights.

    Thanks John, easy set-up….one garden sprinkler….one flash in the back with a blue foil and one in the front (no color)…The water itself 3x4m and 5cm deep. Made with four pieces of wood and a black plastic foil…

    And the flash sync at 1/400 second otherwise you don't get the waterdrops right

    Very nice, love the depth of the image. With slower shutter speeds you get the effect of raindrops going up instead of down.

    Thanks everybody, and just to correct my statement and Hackbones comment:

    - Rain drops are hard to photograph if you want them to look right with flash.

    - The only way to shoot them right is to use a flash unit with a real short T1 pulse time, because it is the T1 time Micro seconds that will freeze the drop.

    - Low end Flash units are not able to achieve this as the flash pulse is to long and as such the drop will have a streak as it has been illuminated while falling

    - Flash Sync will not fix this issue, It only avoids ambient light to come in to the camera. shooting 1/125 sec allows 8msec of time for light to come in the camera besides the very short flash pulse within that time frame. If you can get flash Sync at 1/1000 sec then the ambient light effect is serious reduced and you get a night by day effect.

    This picture was taken by normal daylight.
