17

Last night, I tried to do the water droplet thing, but it was too dark, I had my ISO bumped right up to 3200 which was doing nothing for the image I wanted, even dangerously hanging the desk lamp over the bowl of water wasn't working so I gave up.

What I did learn last night, was how to use my camera in complete manual mode now. I think I'm absolutely converted. It's fantastic. But what does annoy me about my camera currently is the lens, my max aperture is f5.6, I cannot wait til the end of the month when I choose my f1.8, that's going to make shots like this simples!
