Congratulations on the ribbon. This has to be the best water drop shot ever. Absolutely fantastic.

This is actually two drops. One coming back up from the fall and another hitting it dead on. Fantastic chance, and skill of course. :) I've been trying to get that to happen and I can't even get close. 'gratz on 2nd.

OK, I admit it, I am soooooooooooooo freaking tired of water droplets I skip right past most of them with a big old yawn. But not this one. Showed me something different. And for that you get an 8. Nah, strike that. Make it a 9.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/06/2009 08:51:00 AM
This is a fine example of such a photograph, but I really must say that I've seen enough of these. It's a tricky capture, and I don't have the patience or talent for this, but I never connect with them; they leave me flat. 6 for the technicals.
 11/06/2009 06:46:43 AM
Love the clarity, reflection and sunset colors!

I love this photo.. the lighting and the reflection on the water itself is Beautiful

well done
(would it stand a tad more sharpening?)

Just when you think that droplets have been done to death, someone puts in an entry like this. Fantastic. I can't help but admire it. Well done.

This is a really good one of those.

Irene , william ?? I love shots like this !!!! I would have preferred a more evenly lighted background. Still excellent and good luck. Hope you don't get hit too badly from the ant-water drop voters, 9
