Heheh needs a good setup firstly. A good flash is also needed. I think anyways freeze the moment..

im sure aaron will correct me.. Im going to try these splash shots soon.

Aaron loving the photos mate

What lens you using with the 40d?

thanks mate guess i just have to keep trying so

[siddr20]

Will be even better if you have an external flash unit. Something remote..

[fullyhyperlite]

To capture something, and freeze it as he has done you also need to use an UBER FAST shutter speed haha

A tripod as well or a surface to place the camera on, to remove unwanted blur from the camera moving.

cheers guys

for the milk splash I used a 50mm 1.8 for those shots, speedlite mounted on hotshoe, and an old black tshirt for the background. 40d was mounted on tripod over a table.

i grabbed a basting brush (or any brush really) and used that to drip milk...i was using the bottom of a drinking glass as the base there..

anyway you just keep dripping and shooting until you get the shot you want..i wasnt using a stupidly fast shutter..i think it might have been about 1/320..just experiment and see what works...which is all i was doing..

happy to answer any questions though for any shots you might see.
