Thx.^^ Dunno if u already know this, but I just go thru for those who are new. There are 2 ways to capture water droplets falling.

1. Flash frozen - Set narrow aperture and slow shutter like 1.5-3s, then manual trigger an external flash to freeze the droplet.

2. High speed sync - Use high shutter speed to capture the waterdroplet. This lipton is captured this way.

Lipton word will be inversed in the water droplet. So u need to inverse the lipton box in the background.
