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.
