Hi Matthew

I tried this once,  we used to have a very curious cat!!! Lol  That is what you call "high speed" photography.

Cheers and thanks.

I would just like to add Matthew, I am not sure that this one puts some of the water shots on here to shame, although an incredible photograph for sure, there are some very very good water shots on here, more colourful, better focused etc etc.  I just thought that I would make that little point.

Cheers.

Faster than a speeding bullet, well faster than a much, much slower airgun pellet however it is still an impressive shot.

Nice to see prevoiusly unseen types of shots.

Shows there is room for the imagination yet.

I would have thought something similar would be possible with less hassle with the HS10s high speed video mode.

All joking aside, it's an amazing accomplishment.  Hats off to the chap that did it!

Couldnt agree more Steve didn't word it well or at least not how i'd have liked to, certainly all of the water droplet shots I have seen are fantastic, had a go at this a couple of times with very limited success.

I thought it looked like an airgun pellet but like you say still very impressive, and few have said maths is boring, on this evidence I would argue different lol.

All the best

Lol Matthew, I didn't want to  "burst your balloon"  M8,  just thought it appropriate to mention it.  Thanks for taking it in good spirit, something we need a bit of around here at the mo.

Cheers.
