Love the reflections on the drop. Fantastic work on getting that perfect drop ......... having spent many hours trying, I know it's not easy. |

I'm hoping to leave comments on as many photo's in this challenge as possible... out of (currently) 1113 images, I gave 90 of them an 8. Your image was one of those 90, placing you well within the top 10% for this challenge.
Lots of water droplet pictues in every challenge it seems these days, hated by some, loved by others. Sometimes with the abundance of such shots it's hard to remember how difficult perfectly executed water drops are. This has an added dimension of the background reflected through the droplet, which I can only imagine to be much more difficult to achieve. Personally, I would have rated it a point higher if the image was fully desaturated, as I find the odd hints of colout here and there to be a distraction rather than adding anything to the image. Nonetheless, a nice shot.
Good luck for a strong finish in this challenge. |

cool capture. why not clone out the little spots on the drop from left ? that would make it look much better IMO |
|

This is magical, complete masterpiece, artistically and technically! 10 |

Awesome capture and presentation. Gorgeous. But in the end, it is yet another example of a tired genre. Sorry. |

I'll be here for them, hopefully :-) I like the interspersing of color in the reflection, that's really cool. Good capture. |

Been done so many times and yet there is something about this water drop that really makes it seem like it is a new concept. |
|

Like a psychedelic lollipop! Amazing clarity and luminosity. Great detail. A water drop masterpiece. |

It is an amazing picture that must have taken an incredible amount of time, patience and undoubted skill. I would like to read a 'how I did it' after the challenge. I'm not that keen on the title though. |
|
|
03/14/2009 03:49:02 AM |
As a splash aficionado, I can say with some feeling that this is a stunning image, movement frozen and so much in focus - a considerable challenge - my compliments. |

really cool wafer drop, well done |

wa hoo....you got that right...lots of thought in this ..photo...it took a bit of time to set up...not to mention all the 9K shots it took...oh that's right it took you one right...hmmm...A+. |
|
|
03/13/2009 04:17:57 PM |
Nice timing. The swirling pattern adds interest |
|
|
03/13/2009 12:02:06 PM |
Long live the waterdrop! I think the pattern on the flat(ish) water is the most intriguing part of this image for me. |
|
|
03/13/2009 09:30:24 AM |
Looks like a Ralph image, if it's not that is still a real compliment. Beautiful. 9. |

Wonderful detail and tones and colors. I dont care what the rest say I will never get tired of water drop shots. :=) |

Nice reflections on the past and future. |
|
|
03/11/2009 04:47:21 PM |
Fabulously clear, great reflections. That one red dot on the water stem looks a bit like a dead pixel which is a wee bit annoying but otherwise, the shot is excellent! |
|
|
03/11/2009 04:32:36 PM |
how is that even possible to do?? |
|
|
03/11/2009 03:28:30 PM |
exelent done just like IreneM |
|
|
03/11/2009 03:01:44 PM |
Ah... A DPC mainstay. Nice waterdrop photo, and good refraction. |
|
|
03/11/2009 01:36:20 PM |
funky and creative I like it! |
|
|
03/11/2009 08:48:26 AM |
W-O-W!!!! Just when I thought I've seen every permutation of water droplets this gets posted, absolutely amazing, you got everything going for you in this shot. |
|
|
03/11/2009 07:03:32 AM |
WOW an amazing shot for an amazing challenge. You should be proud of this one, I hope it ribbons for you. |
|
|
03/11/2009 05:38:20 AM |
Cleverly done, 10/10. Makes my droplet photos look very average - is it upside down (looking from under the water?), anyway I'd love to know how you did this. |
|

Love the way the background works into this one |
|
|
03/10/2009 09:25:41 PM |
How many shots did it take before you perfected it? |
|
|
03/10/2009 08:48:28 PM |
I never get tired of these. :) |
|
|
03/10/2009 08:30:47 PM |
wowie.. an old classic that has it all... this was one of the shots that first mesmorized (sp?) me and set me on DPC... gonna look thru the archives to see where from GL |
