Drop By Boring Drop

Who knew photographing droplets of milk could be so arduous?
It took me forever to get an okay shot but when I got it on my computer I realised that you can hardly see the ripples and splashes. I took to photoshop to try and rectify it and I came up with this. Not sure about it. I'll have to experiment with this more often.
I'd really love to be able to conquer this style so all hints and tips are welcome!
