Greetings from the Critique Club!
Overall, this is a lovely photograph with many interesting elements. The swaths of colour segement the image into four discernable areas from the upper right corner to the lower left, offering an interesting draw for the eye. The colours themselves are very attractive, and an interesting alternative to what may usually be associated with a "water" picture. There is a very pleasing dispersal of large vs. small drops throughout. The collection of larger drops in the lower right is especially nice, working well with the swath of lighter colour on that edge of the picture to draw the eye along.
An image like this is enhanced dramatically by sharp focus, and I think a combination of a deeper depth of field, plus more aggressive sharpening with USM or similar, would have added greatly to the effect.
A good picture despite this, and very pleasant to look at. Congrats!
I hope this helps,
