    Water Wizard

    "Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
    Wool of bat, and tongue of dog,
    Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting,
    Lizard's leg, and howlet's wing,--
    For a charm of powerful trouble,
    Like a hell-broth boil and bubble."

    -Bill Shakespeare

    I managed to keep it levitated and circulating long enough to get the shot!

    I turned to check the tethered computer and when it dropped my feet got wet! It's about 2.5 gallons of boiling, churning water!

    How I have not managed to electrocute myself is beyond me!

    Does "Sorcerer"s Apprentice" mean anything to any one?

    Only the good die young - it is a good capture of a violent blob of water - you were indeed lucky not to have been electrocuted, no doubt saved by some ghastly bad deed you have done in the past such as buying a lens without the wife's permission. I may live forever......

    I was aware of "Sorcerer"s Apprentice" even before Walt made the documentary.

    2.5 gallons of angry water splashing onto cables. I think you are more likely one of the Charmed Ones than the Sorcerer's Apprentice

    Great subject, Terry. I can only begin to wonder how you managed to levitate a 2.5 gallon droplet.

    Terri's job is to entertain us...intrigue us...and encourage us to ask questions...and we are all glad he is still alive after this last ordeal. hahahaha ..

    Another good shot, Terri...'wish I have you patience at the moment...and your luck. Another lens purchase and he will not have the luck of the Irish with his wife next time. LOL

    Hey thanks for viewing guys!

    Funny thing about the Wifey-Poo...

    Its always "her" house, but its always "my" mess! If I were laying on the floor dead with an electrical circuit blown because of me, she would revive me so she could kill me for blowing a circuit!

    Stunningly beautiful! Looks like a piece of jewelery to me.

    The usual wonderfully entertaining tale... Wifey-poo... That's the way it is in my house, too, and as as it should be.

    Thanks Terri...I missed this group too so even if I was so tired a while ago reading the posts here I did not logged off -- I just slept for a while. Love your comment about wifey-poo...I have been practicing on water shots too but I think I have to do it outside in the deck because the garage belongs to hubby-poo so have to do it at night when the kids (doggies) are asleep. When I get some nice ones I will share. All fails at the moment with all the experiments...need patience...patience...and sleep...
