"These pretzels are making me thirsty."

Thank you, I am very impressed. I had a darkroom in the basement when I was young, so I know the chemistry very well. Memories. Yes! There is room in life for multiple processes.
That’s a great place for them, but I got this as a limited run from to the stars. Tom’s choice in Boxcar Racer.
Same tree as in a few previous photos. A very large pin oak.
Battle of Britain Memorial, London, UK. Nikon Z50 + 28mm f/2.8. ISO 160 f/2.8 1/50s.
Thanks to the fine photography enthusiasts on here for motivating me to get off my butt. Enjoying this a lot 👍
After many many many shots... I got one where the drop stand still on the water pyramid.
Long time since I wanted to do it, got inspired by another photo and for now I'm good to go
Definitely better than mine (the droplet is more in focus). 😁
You have no idea how many shots it took.
Thanks to you! 😍
If you didn't do it, I wouldn't have done it. I was told that it was possible only with very fast lab cameras.
I know there's a whole art form built around water drop (liquid drop) photography, with people using special devices to help them get the right timing and specific effects. This is very cool!
That wonderful shot reminded me of the time (a while ago), when I was experimenting with fruit dropping...

Now that took ages and a shedload of shots to get the timing right

It's funny how these things go in trends. I remember doing this with a lemon. LR tells me it was in February 2013.That wonderful shot reminded me of the time (a while ago), when I was experimenting with fruit dropping...

We had a thread going for fruit dropping in 2015, getting together and trying to work out the best ways of doing it

Really Beautiful! Something else to try ☺️ if the family doesn’t complain too much for the time I’m behind the camera, but I love it !That wonderful shot reminded me of the time (a while ago), when I was experimenting with fruit dropping...

Must've been during the time that I was taking a hiatus from photography and the POTD thread, as I sure don't recall this.... Fun to see the images that people submitted back then!
Dropping fruit into a (carbonated?) liquid is different than the liquid drops thingy, though.....
Today’s sunset featured a very nice sundog.

This man had an unusually proud, calm and friendly appearance and accepted the photo in advance in a friendly, relaxed look.
It's interesting how some encounters that lasted only seconds can still be remembered eleven years later.
Such people enrich my book of memories.

I understand that (those bubbles were the air carried down into the plain water by the fruit as it sank), but the water and the sheers number of shots plus the timing required was what brought it to mind

There are those at peace with the world around them; even the donkey looks chill.
