A shot from todays model shoot with Ais, and Emily. we tried over and over to get this in one shot. Catching the splash was easy, but the tonic made Ais blink as it hit her in the face. In the end I filed a separate shot with her eyes open and merged them in afterwards.

This is my first ever DPC water drop! I vowed when I joined that I would never do one but technically this is a water splash so it does not count

Nice shot and well worth the effort.

Might be interesting to retry nearer to her face as though she was about to drink ?

Oh you are so riDICULOUSLY talented! And fortunately, her exquisite and INTERESTING beauty take your mind 1/2 off the water splash :) Just kidding -- the water splash actually is very cool in this shot. Seein' as how water splashes always win ribbons, you might wanna enter something like this some time, it really is an interesting take on that concept.

Very creative and impressive. Never considered doing one like this. Excellent lighting -- looks like you got that all worked out after using Lutchenko as your guinea pig. Great eyes on the model. Expression on her face, especially with her eyes bugging out like that, to me expresses disbelief that you are crazy enough to do something like this. :-) Amazing!

I absolutely love the look of the model - agree that she looks like a china doll.
Such fabulous skin tone and gorgeous eyes. This will make a great advertisement.

very very cool, totally unique "water drop" shot. the model looks semi fake though (although i must say those eyelashes are AWESOME!)

Fantastic!! I love love love it! She is gorgeous and the lighting on that metalic fabric is spot on with detail to the lime in the glass. That is why I love that lens (wish I had the camera body you have to go with it)
