 First day at the pool. The water was like ice. Grayson jumped in about 25 times and this was my favorite shot.

Thanks for all of the comments. I'm still in the minority about the border. Not quite understanding how a pencil thin line can be distracting when it closes in on the subject, but that may be an argument that goes on into the next millenium!

Nice capture Judy. Water is focus, blue and cold. I have to agree with rest about the border.

Love the shot Judy! The water looks ice cold...I must say I would have preferred no border or a white border around the shot. Most people seem to have pointed that out already. I love that deep blue at the bottom. I also love the expression. Well done.

Ohmygoodness! What a fantastic photo! The blue color of that water, and the clean crisp stop action of the water! This could not be better! It makes me happy to look at it! Easy 10!!

great capture, I think I like it better without frame. I usually like simple frames but not on this

Nice image. IMO, the border is very distracting and wrecks an otherwise enjoyable image. 5

I really don't like the "border", it's a major distraction imo.
