Took this photo in a homemade lightbox. Set the shutter speed for 1/2000 of a second and used a tripod so I would have a hand free. I used yellow food coloring in water and poured it out of a glass soda bottle. Took a few tries to get it just right.

shadow is too distracting.. a different perspective (looking at the glass straight on) with no shadow could of put you in the top 20 at least. I will give you 8 though as I can see what you was attempting to achieve..
would have preferred the glass be further from the background, so as not to cast a shadow. the droplets seem to come from nowhere and might better have been rendered as a stream, to give more motion and smoothness to the shot, with possibly more (1/3?) liquid in the glass.
Now that is just interesting looking. The only negative thing I can say is that I think the background would have been better if it was moved back far enough to keep the shadow from showing up.
