 Nothing easier than sticking a knife under the flow of water and snap with flash !!! Well it was NOT that easy to create an excellent image especially with water being such a reflective medium, now irenem did a fantastic job in the last deja vu challenge.

I tried to re-create an image similar to Ashezz's but different to Irene's and still make it interesting with a reasonable composition and hopefully score better than a 5.50 , LOL !! Wish me luck.
I had fun though, used 2 macro flashes to light the water patterns and I particularly wanted to see the water texures yet not catch too much highlights that could be a real distraction. Converted to B&W.

A definite improvement. Nice contrast of tones and textures between the splash and the background.
