SpheriKal
Water drop shot -- I timed it so that the drop sat on the surface, the sphere is acting like a lens.
I used two day glo posterboards as the backdrop.
Stop shot trigger used for drop dispensing and to control the flashes.
Two SB-800 flashes used, one on either side.

Pristine
This is a cool crown splash effect, and the splash is also reflected nicely in the water in front.
Setup:
- Drop making rig is set above a large bin of water. A drop is created and captured as it makes a cool splash effect.
- Two - SB-800 flashes are set to each side, one gelled blue, the other is gelled red.
- Hiviz Schmitt photogate trigger with delay circuit used to trigger flashes.
- Picasa used for light levels and cropping.

Take_me_to_your_Liter
Alien life form -- looking for intelligent life here -- will he find any?
Strobist / setup:
- High speed photo of water drop falling into plastic storage bin filled with water.
- Two gelled SB-800 flashes used, one yellow and one orange. Bounced off of white foamboard behind dish.
- I had two books setup on either side as gobos, this caused the eyes of the alien.
- Hiviz Schmitt photogate trigger with delay circuit used to trigger flash.
- Drops were produced by connecting a solenoid to a power supply and momentary switch. This let me produce (mostly) repeatable drops.

Setup:
- Drop making rig above a small piece of 3/4 " PVC pipe, sealed at one end and filled with water.
- Water in pipe is dyed blue.
- Two - SB-800 flashes are set to each side, one gelled blue, the other is gelled red.
- Background is another SB-800 bounced off white poster board.
- Hiviz Schmitt photogate trigger with delay circuit used to trigger flashes.
- Errant drops removed with Picasa, but "happy couple" is captured with only light level adjustments.

Rough_Seas
This poor dude is getting tossed about by some rough seas!
The blue color in this shot is done completely with light - no dye or photoshop used!
Strobist / setup:
- High speed photo of a water drop falling into a square glass filled to the brim with water.
- Two gelled SB-800 flashes used, one orange and one blue. The orange gelled flash was reflected off a white foamboard background and illuminated the background. and can be seen through the glass.
- The blue gelled flash was used to reflect light off the top surface of the water -- the blue is entirely from the flash, no dye or coloring was added to the water.
- Hiviz Schmitt photogate trigger with delay circuit used to trigger flash.
- Drops were produced by connecting a solenoid to a power supply and momentary switch. This let me produce (mostly) repeatable drops.
- Used Picasa to crop, adjust light levels and added some saturation.
