Hey! I don't think you need a macro lens to achieve this shot. And don't worry I took HUNDREDS of pictures to get the ones I showed on my blog! Here's a few tips you could try: Use a tripod if you can. Focus right where the water comes out of the faucet and then lock your focus off so you don't have to try to re-focus each time. Use a fast shutter speed. At least 1/200. Set your camera to continuous shot and hold your shutter down, and take at least 10 pictures in a row before letting go. Also, it really helped me to increase water pressure until I got a pretty steady flow of water. To my eye, it almost looked like a steady stream, but my shutter was fast enough to freeze drops in the air anyways.. The steadier the drip, the more successful shots of mid air drips you'll get when you hold down your shutter. Good luck, I hope you try it again, and post your progress!
Oh, I love the advice in the comment above! I tried this also, but didn't get great shots. That was a year ago, so I'm ready to try again. And that's not a bad shot at all! I'm wondering if close-up filters would work for this, as I have a set.
Hei, Olen yrittänyt tavoittaa sinua useamman kerran s-postin kautta, mutta gmail-osoitteeseesi viestini eivät ole ilmeisesti saapuneet. Voiko sinua tavoittaa toisesta osoitteesta? Olisin tilannut sinulta purkkikyltin. t. Karlisa

Selma: No sanos muuta..ihan ärsyttää - vaikkakin turhaa äärsyyntyä jostain tälläsestä joutavanpäiväsestä! ;)
Karlisa: Hei, kiva kun kommentoit tänne laittaneesi meiliä - oli mennyt nimittäin jostain syystä roskapostiin enkä sinne ole koskaan tätä ennen hoksannut katsoa, nyt katoin kaikki paikat kun ihmettelin, että mikseiköhän mulle ole tullu mitää sulta! Vastasin! <3

I need a macro lens, too! They look like so much fun to experiment with!

Upeahan siitä tuli! Mulla on useasti kuva päässä valmiista valokuvasta, mutta perhana kun en osaa ottaa sitä:)
