Andy's Angles: Frozen Water

 

When you shoot moving water, you can go in one of two directions.

You can slow down the shutter and get a nice, milky effect.

Or

You can do what I did here.  Speed up the shutter.  This photo was taken at 1/2500 of a second.

Overkill, perhaps.

What it does is freezes the motion of every water droplet, and I always think that's cool.
