The photographs taken while the probe was descending seem to have been shuffled, like a deck of cards, leaving the sequence of events in doubt. The well known images of the pebbles, presumably taken after the probe had landed, can be found near everywhere on ESA's website.
This is the wettest of the triplets and I'm assuming it was taken early on during the descent. As cold as Titan is, space is colder, and the liquid drops on the camera's lens or housing is probably liquid methane that condensed out of Titan's atmosphere.

This very wide string of images, about 45 of them, appear to have been taken during the descent also, and it concludes with the well known pebble picture. It's too wide to post as a picture, so you will have to click on it. You will notice that as the probe descends, the images of Titan become clearer, like dropping out of a fog.
