How could anyone have given this a one. I'm guessing they were just jealous.

Sweet shot - one of the best water balloon explosion shots I have ever seen.

Just checking the profile of Chicago GTG group. This one is great Dave. I would definately like to try this some day. How many ballons you exploded before getting the right one.

Wow what a winner you have here. Excellent job!

I think this would have done better rotated 90 degrees (left or right). 6

That's really good, if only you could get the red rest of the balloon. But apart from it, great! 10!

Great idea and a very fast shutter speed I would have thought. Perhaps the crop could have been a little less tight at the top and bottom? Nice shot.

This is great and refreshingly different. Great job capturing the shape of the baloon!
Post actions
I gave it a 9. Would have been a 10, but the stick and the balloon are sort of distracting. Don't ask me how to get the shot without them, though.
Post actions
7 - Good shot. Criticism; even sharper, more 'depth' (both difficult to attain I imagine), making the 'suspension' really 'pop out' and the colors more vivid would make this even better in my opinion. Perhaps a different crop, not sure.
Post actions
Now THAT is cool! Nicely done! Wish I would have thought of this.
