Having seen some efforts recently of people trying to freeze water droplets, I thought I'd have a go. My water shots into a glass weren't very successful, but then I thought "milk", and dropped it onto a glass table mat instead. Here are the results. Using onboard flash only.

Believe it or not no special equipment here. Just set the camera up on a tripod, Focused on the spot where I hoped the drops would land. Used a cable release to fire the camera in one hand, as I slowly tilted a teaspoon of milk in the other. The rest was lucky timing. No strobes or fancy gizmo's just the camera's built in flash. See exif data for the rest.

Close up of a very small spiders head and legs. Achieved by holding the lens the wrong way round against the camera body. And lighting using a LED keyring lamp.
