Thanks Guys!

Actually you'll find a bunch of different opinions on the best way to photograph a water drop, but they all require one thing. A whole lotta patience. Once you have that the rest is easy.

oh and knowing the correct aperture (which I obviously have a problem with. LOL!) and shutter speed.

Anyway, I just followed these instructions as best I could.
