    Hrm. Is there more to taking the water pictures than turning the water to a slow (medium, fast, whatever) drip and, y’know, taking the picture?

    I mean, you may have to play with camera settings on shutter speed, flash, etc, but what information are all these people asking for, exactly??

    *sigh*

    Great pictures, though!

    “Darkness and Light” is the kind of picture I want to take. The clarity and the contrast makes me love nature so much.
