Obviously with a camera . Definitely do please. I know we had one member here, he used to share water droplets pictures as well. Sadly he is not active for a year now.With a camera But seriously if anyone has any questions happy to help. Might be able to get a few other droppers in on this also.
I just seen Tina'a work it is nice. Learning how to use a dropper can be daunting and what makes it even more difficult is that you start out with no idea (most of us) on how the droplets form. Like for instance a Goblet shape is formed by sending down a large drop that creates a thick worthington jet. If you go too far with the drop size your drop will split into 2 drops and then send up a tall thin jet but unless we watch slow motion videos on this we will have no clue.. In the beginning sometimes we will fluke a shot but have no idea how it was achieved haha. To create a bubble jet we need to understand its a large drop from a large diameter nozzle that makes a certain popping sound when it hits the surface of the water creates a bubble under the surface and comes back up with a jet in the middle. You can see all of this here in this video. I discovered these after I had already learned a little bit and wish I found them at the start.Obviously with a camera . Definitely do please.

And I think Tina Boes has some lovely water drops pictures as well.
I think doing water drops pictures aren't that easy as others, example flowers or insects.

I bet you had some fun and made a bit of mess as well .I tried drop photography back when I started macro, in my first attempt I tried it without flash but was unhappy with the results, after I bought my flash I tried it again and I got some decent shots but it was early in my photography journey and I havent tried it again since. I used a plastic bag and made a small hole in it, lot of splashing and got a bit messy but it was fun and I got some pretty cool shots, may have to revisit again soon.
