Very cool pics  :)

And every one said, 'If we only live,
We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to sea in a Sieve.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Andreasssssssssssssssssssssssssss... Is fantasticccccc!!!!!!!

I want only a answer, how do you do this perfectly drops? my love, explain me pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!

kisssss and hugssssssss

 

Thats TOTALLY AWESOME!!!. You could make a nice collage with those. Now lets see one of Eija.

Question the question. Answer the question. Question the answer...

I wish I knew what I was gonna say :oP

Na this is just tooo funny .  Eija would be cool idea she is such a darling! Don't You want to make a tutorial how You make those dropp shots? Pleeeaseee!  I would'nt even know where to start with it !!   

seeyus  Tunde

Awwww!!!! Thank you fine people! I´m glad you like ´em.

Tutorial? Noooo!!! I hate making tutorials....i suck at that. Nothing to it really....just keep your cam on a tripod, focus in on where you expect your drop to fall. No autofocus therefor....keep the focus locked. Then i fire away with one hand while i release drops with my other hand using a little squirt. The image inside the drop is simply a print placed behind my bowl of water.....flipped up-side-down. Once you´ve captured a drop, you can start playing around with different settings....like the exposure or white-balance. Good luck.

Oh, i have a new exercice now thank you Andreas for your tutorial !!!!!!!!!

hugs and kiss

muahhhhhhhhhhhh for my new teacher :lol:

Here is my first try to shot dropps. Nothing like yours Andreas, but good start from a novice. At least I kapish how to do it, all I have to figure out why is not sharp!!?? 

Thanks again for a hint ( tuto) and a spare room for my shot.

seeyus I am back to the kicthen    Tunde 

That´s a good first try Tunde. If you get lower on the perspective you wont get so many reflections from the flash. And it is sharp...the base is, while the droplet is a tad out of focus. So if you lower your perspective, your drop will line up and more of it will be in focus at the same time. Do i make any sense?

Psssst, thanks for letting me know Andreas. =] I would have found this though, especially with my name on it! Thanks so much for sharing these with us, they are truly amazing. I've copied them to my hard drive so I can cherish them forever. ;o) And yes, gallery quality for sure. I can see the top three in triptych format, I think it would look very cool. Your postwork on the Brian on cracks me up! **"Giggity, giggity, giggity -- oh, yeaaaaaaah!"**

Kort Kramer - Kramer Kreations

ROFL!!! Of course that collectible comes with an inflatable doll, LOL. Thanks for showing it....your personal collection i gather? Giggity goooooo! :lol:

LOL @ Marlene as well.....you never know though...he was somewhat decent after he had peeped at Lois in the ladies-room and had to undergo therapy for that.

Just looking at some i took using the D200 of Quagmire and they seem to have turned out okay....YAAAAAAAY!!!! My first attempt using the DSLR....finally some shots with really high resolution. Whenever i´ve taken drop-shots with my Powershot in Super Macro-mode the resolution couldn´t go higher  than 2200x1700....then after you crop it you end up with what you see here basically.  :blink:

Those are amazing! And too funny! You really have created your own style with these. I want to see the ones you did with the big cam! It will be a while before I try these with my new one. sheesh I can't even get a clear shot of something that doesn't move! LOL

Anyway, these really are so well done, Andreas. There's no limit to what you can do with something like this. And it never gets boring! :)

Okay then Marlene....here´s that Quagmire-one. First try with the D200 so i´m not that pleased with it...but i can only get better right? Going back to work in a few hours....graveyard-shift...and that usually means a lot of drops. :tt2:

You did it! "Diggity, Diggity, Diggity Do!" Quagmire's face is a bit blurred, but the rest of the photo is crystal clear and perfect...so I think you should be quite happy with this. Of course, we all know what high standards you set for yourself... ;oP

Kort Kramer - Kramer Kreations

Yay!!! Quagmire cracks me up,just looking at him! Thanks Andreas.It's giggity-great! :^)

LOL,I think I saw my favorite FG episode ever, last night.I had never seen it before. It was the one where they have to lock themselves in a panic room and to pass the time Peter tells the Griffin family history.Too bad I didn't tape it.The jokes were so rapid-fire half of them zipped right over my head,lol.

I saw that one too Marlene, though not last night. Not my favorite, but heck, it is so hard to choose a fav from that show.

Kort Kramer - Kramer Kreations

That's true...So many great ones it is difficult...

But it cracked me up so much that for the moment it's my favorite,lol.

Ever seen Invader Zim Andreas? You might enjoye that as well. Sick and twisted humor, though not quite the same as Family Guy. "Stewie: Now, I'm going to do something I like to call the 'Compliment Sandwhich" Where I say something good, talk about where you need improvement, and then end with something good. Brian: Whatever you gotta do... Stewie (flips notepad): Something good... something good... You look like SNOOPY and it makes me smile... but you have smelly dog farts."

Kort Kramer - Kramer Kreations

LOL I love that episode,too.That's the one where Brian has to work for Stewie,isn't it?

Poor Meg...She's always getting left out.Even you left her out,Andreas,lol.

Yes, poor Meg. ;^P "Stewie: Did you hear that Meg? Guys can marry other guys now. So...this is awkward, but I mean, if they can do that, that is pretty much it for you, isn't it? I mean you as well pack it in. Game over."

Kort Kramer - Kramer Kreations

Ooooh!!!! Never even heard about that show. Gotta go look for some info on that one straight away. Thanks buddy. LOL at your dialouge btw. :lol:

Ooops....i think you´re right Marlene....but so far i´ve also left out Lois.

Okay....here´s another one of Quagmire. Think this one is a bit sharper than the first....but what do i know.

SUPER! Love that shot of him, and the way he seems to melt with the droplets. Yes, Google Invader Zim. The whole series is out on DVD. If you didn't want to buy the other two DVDs after viewing the first, then I consider myself totally clueless. ;] Okay, one more, my favorite schtick next to the Stewie/Brian novel writting dialog, and Stewie singing Rocket Man: "Lois: So doctor, is Peter healthy? Doctor: My goodness, you'll be dead within a month. Peter: What? Doctor (revealing comic he was reading): Oh, Hagar the Horrible, if you keep up that lifestyle of pillaging and eating giant turkey legs, you'll be dead within a month. Now, onto you. Peter: So, what do you think? Pretty healthy, eh? Doctor: Well, Mr. Griffin, let's take a look at your physical results. Argh! There's a spider in here. Now, here we go. Mr Griffin, you're going to expire in a month. Peter/Lois: Argh! Doctor: This is your driver's licence, isn't it? Now, unfortunately, I'm afraid you're going to die... Peter: Argh! Doctor: ...when you watch these Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts. Lois: Will you just tell us how Peter's health is?! Doctor: Ah, Mr. Griffin, I'm not quite sure how to say this. Kim Bassinger? Bass singer? Bassinger? But now, onto the cancer. Lois: Oh my goodness! Doctor: You are a Cancer, right? You were born in July? Now onto these test results. My, they're much worse than I thought. Peter/Lois: Oh! Doctor: My son got a D minus on his history test. Now Mr Griffin, that liver's got to come out. Lois: What?! Doctor: It's been in the microwave for three minutes, it'll get dry. Now- Lois: Please, please, we can't take any more schtick.. Please just tell us, is Peter healthy? Doctor: Oh, yeah, he's fine, he's just really fat."

Kort Kramer - Kramer Kreations

LOL!!!! Can´t you quote the episode when Peter narrates his own life? That´s the funniest thing i have ever seen. "i woke up several hour later in a haze" LMAO! :lol:

Peter (narrating his life): "I walked into the kitchen and sat down at the table. I looked with a grimace at the questionable meal Lois had placed in front of me. Of course I'd never tell her how disgusted I was with her cooking, but somehow I think she knew. Lois had always been full of energy and life, but lately I had begun to grow more aware of her aging. The bright, exuberant eyes that I had fallen in love with were now beginning to grow dull and listless with the long fatigue of a weary life." (Lois knocks Peter out.) "I woke several hours later in a daze." LOL, yeah, that and when Peter has theme music to his every move...too funny!

Kort Kramer - Kramer Kreations

LOL at the Stewie/Brian 'novel' dialogue.Meg,my daughter not the cartoon Meg,lol,always quotes that one.That's how she got me to watch FG in the first place...she kept telling me I had to see that bit.After I watched that episode,I was hooked,lol.

Oh and did you say sick and twisted?Here's a fine example...lol.

Bonnie: Somebody save him, he can't swim!
Peter: Oh, he's not even kicking. Kick Joe, kick.
Lois: Peter, he's a paraplegic!
Peter: That doesn't mean he can't hear. Kick Joe, kick!

Ooops edit...Another great one,Andreas!Is that when he gets arrested?You must be thrilled to be getting these with the D200.
