No experience of water droplet shots, so I'll just admire them. Only suggestions I can make is to lose the burnt out highlights in #1 and #2

Really well done, #6 is a winner for sure.. The spider was a real bonus.

I hope you don't mind my saying, but your sig on the photos is very distracting. It pulls the eye straight to it and away from the most important part of your photos.

The colour images are terrific, as others have noted!



The first three monochromes are well on the way.....

You could try having the lens axis level with the water, then all the interest is focussed on the drop itself, where the action is, rather the the surface.
It will give a more dramatic, graphic result...

Also try having a b/g of different high contrast tones, also to achieve more drama in the refracted, of shading in the splash, the water column &, if it appears, the water droplet itself.

Keep on shooting!

All the best & thanks for letting us see.

Roger.
