*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*

A unique choice that partially meets the challenge.

Your choice of subject fills the brief in the respect that it is not animal, bug, etc but it could be construed to be animated in that there is action in the flow of the water itself so its possible that this may be reflected in your score.

The image itself has limited appeal due to the shallow DOF and image noise but the subject itself is not really that interesting either. Given your settings you could have reduced the noise with ISO 3200 which would still have given you about 1/4000s plenty fast enough to stop the action. Perhaps a lower viewpoint may have enabled you to emphasise the flow as a peak against the level of the surrounding water but as it is it is just not that interesting, sorry.

Thanks for your submission and apologies for the delayed critique, as they say, 'better late than never', or at least I hope it is, Sid

Nice use of stopped motion in the water, and I like this composition.

This is just too blurry for my taste. Macro to me means something up close but still in focus. If the water coming out of the pipe had been a sharp focus this image would have worked much better.
