I decided to try and catch a water drop mid fall from the deck above on our back patio.  I used a 430EXII flash in the hot shoe of the 7D to stop the action of the drop in the dark lighting conditions.  Since I did not want to go out into the rain with the equipment, I stood in the doorway.  According to the meta data on the photograph, I was zoomed in at 121mm.  Why I was not at the full 200mm is beyond me.  Today’s photograph needed to be heavily cropped to bring the drops front and center as the subjects.
