Water, just like powder makes for beautiful photography. Water photographer extraordinaire, Jack Long, wrote a tutorial on DIY Photography how to build a water curtain that you can use for product photography.

There are essentially three main components that you will need:

• 30″ of 3″ PVC pipe
• PVC fittings from 3″ to 1″ barb
• High volume water pump

The trick, Jake says, is to cut a slit on the pipe and use a filter baffle to make the water flow nicely.

Be sure to read the rest of the DIY Photography’s tutorial for more details.
