Hello
Been playing with water droplets as I mentioned in my other post. Three main series, coronas, umbrellas and interesting water structures.

Here's some macros of umbrellas. Harder to get than the coronas as you need two drops that collide, one coming on top of the rising collumn created by the first sinking and breaking the surface tension.
Its all about timing and luck ... unless you have good geay that automates it all for you (i dont...).

Canon 20Da, Tamron 100-300mm, most at ISO 100, possibly one or two at 200, 1/250, F ranging F/11- 14.

Thanks for looking.
