Still one of my favorite all time shots on DPC. In my opinion, this is one of the most underrated photos on the site. I can see this in the pages of B&W Magazine.

I love this composition, and also the drop as it inhanses the image so much.... The motion blur of the water is awazing.....
I really think this should have done so much better as it is a top image IMO.....

I gave this a 7, if you had gotten rid of the sensor dust (you are allowed to do that in basic editing now, or cleaned your sensor before) I would have given it a 9.
