Photographing Water

Station 1 (Water droplet without flash)

(f/5.6, 1/200 ISO 800)

1. Was it easy to get a shot?
A: Yes, it was relatively easy to get a shot. The tripod made focusing the camera once and then taking multiple shots easy. Timing the shots was the only difficulty, but we got a few good ones after several tries.

2. What did you like/liken't about shooting with the flash:
A: I liked shooting with the flash because it created a lot of highlights and shadows on the water. It also allowed us to use a fast shutter at a relatively low ISO.


Station 2 (Colored without flash with paper)

(f/5.6, 1/200 ISO 1600)

1. Was it easy to get a shot?
A: No, it wasn't. The lack of light made for high ISOs and dim looking images.

2. What did you like/liken't about shooting without the flash:
A: I didn't like it as much. There wasn't enough light so a flash would have been good, but the color would not have been as rich without the flash.

Station 3 (Colored with flash)

(f/5.6, 1/200 ISO 800)

1. Was it easy to get a shot?
A: Yes, all it took was many attempts and good timing.

2. What did you like/liken't about shooting colored water with the flash?
A: The color was not as rich as with the colored paper. However, it was much easier to get a good shot because of the abundance of light. 

Station 4 (Water Clouds)

(f/7.1, 1/200 ISO 800)

1. Was it easy to get a shot?
A: Yes, we just burst away and ended up with several good ones.

2. What creative adjustments did your team make for this shot?
A: We just staggered the timing of the different colors. We dropped one in first, then waited before the next. This created different sized clouds.

3. What did you like/not like about shooting water without the flash?
A: It was really fun and easy.
