Very good attempt at the classic water drop photo. The background may be just the wrong color to add the necessary contrast.

ok, you have caught a splash. however, the colors don't really work that well for me. while this is fairly ok from a technical standpoint, it's not what i would call a strong challenge entry, at least not in a free study. granted, there's a fine line between entering what makes you happy and appealing to the masses, but, if it's votes you want, you have to make that appeal--and i don't see much of that here...

not enough definition of the splash need higher contrast

This image lacks focus and the idea is not very original.

The background does not lean itself for showing the drop very much. A lighter background would have been better on water shots like this. 6

My thinking is that water drop/puddle shots such as this should be crystal clear, this isn't, sorry
