    Drip

    I agree with Paxluv about the bottle and the sink. First the bottle is distracting. It has no business being there cos it has nothing to do with the shot. Fill up space ah? No la. Your shuitters was too slow and thus the blurred drop. The logo of the sink, partly showing, makes the shot look...

    Which is a good entry level tripod to buy?

    Bro, if you're using only a D70, any tripod would be able to hold it still. No tripod is made so badly that even a single DSLR is not stable.
