A couple of years ago I spent ages messing about with a flashgun and my Oly C5050 trying to get something like this - and failing.

Nice shot. Maybe I should try again now I have better kit.

Saw your entry as I came to post mine. Water seems popular

Plenty of respect there for that picture there. I find trying to let the drop of water go from above and getting back to the camera before it splashes really difficult.
