Hi Jon, theres some really good shots in there, though my fav has to be Deep Impact Over, the B+W looks great and the 'glassy' qualtiy of the actual splash looks great.
Nice job on them all.
Add - The BG is a nice choice too... is this into a pot of water? Also, what is the shutter speed used?
Thanks for the feedback Mitonski. I'll check your work out later.
I worked in Shutter Speed Priority mode which meant the exposures varied - I used 1/1000 for all of them. I shot everything outside in daylight and dropped the ball into both a non-stick frying pan and a red bucket of water. Lots of fun!
I finally got used to the timing of dropping the ball so I didn't need to wade through hundreds of shots. Could do with release cable though!!
I was having trouble relating the golf ball with the water, you can tell I'm not a golfer. I like the shape of the splash in "Impact" and feel it would be best if the ball had better focus. Good job.

Did you use fill flash?
I did use flash on a couple of them if the exposure was looking gloomy but it did flatten things out on the ball a bit. Apart from water hazards there's absolutely no hidden connection with golf balls and the water! BTW I'm no mean golfer - I could easily add a few miles to any course while ruining a good walk!
My fav view of the liquid is the second one but the golfball there was spoiled by the flash. Could you try that again with a lower amount of light? The others are interesting too, esp B&W.
