Those are great! Canons would have shot them more symmetrical though.

yeah i forgot to turn on my camera's "force symmetry on reality" button... nikon ship with that feature from factory.. also my d70 shipped with a mecahnical arm that extends from the top of the flash that drops things into water in sync with shutter :P

thanks jacko for the comment...

Nice Theo..

lol @ Jacko!

What lens did you use? also what lighting?

I find it really hard to do stop motion studio shots, only because of the lack of light for fast shutter speed (I use two 100 watt desklamps).
