Here are few images of my first attempts to do water drop photography, followed by DDG enhanced version of each photo: Water drop photography basics come down to: using flash, low level ambient light, relatively low ISO ( around 200); in digital photography ISO measures the sensitivity of the image sensor; the lower the number the less sensitive your camera is to light, fast shutter speed (exposure 0.05 sec), aperture around f/14 to allow for sufficient depth of field.

Here is another set of pictures taken from an airplane For the majority of modern passenger airplanes the flight cruising altitude is 35,000 feet (10.67 km). The “sweet spot” of flying is regarded as between 35,000 and 42,000 feet (the airline industry still uses feet and inches as its standard measurements) – too high and the oxygen becomes too sparse to fuel the engines, too low and the air resistance is greater.
