Oh wow, that's is beauty! I wish the fetish with Icelandic landscapes would go away on this website and little gems like these get a higher rating!

Wow what a beauty! Excellent work. Well deserved first place, and what a fabulously arty challenge to get a blue on!

Are you making prints available for this one?

The module was controlling:
- the solenoid valve positioned above the cup (and connected to a tank containing milk)
- an infrared motion detector, positioned below the valve, on the droplets' way
- the DSLR
- the flash

Most of the technical work consisted in programming the module, so that it would allow for 2 consecutive droplets to fall within about 80ms, trigger the DSRL just after that, detect the droplets falling next to the motion detector, and fire the flash bursts accordingly.

At first I tried all of this manually, but it was a real nightmare, especially without the solenoid valve to launch 2 droplets at will... you should have seen my tries using a perforated yogurt pot in a dark room :-)

Overall, it took me about 2.000 tries, distributed over 4 week-ends, but I'm a slow guy!


Woah! Thank you! I'm going to try out something like this over the week (and weeks to come)..hopefully, I'll get a suitable challenge to display a selection... i don't have a StopShot module..and probably may not be able to afford it right now - so I'm gonna have way more than 2000 shots! :-)

Thanks again, and a fantastic picture!
