 I shot this for ZEN but also just to play around with this idea. For the second challenge in a row I'm using completely unoriginal subjects. I used the same shooting natural light "studio" that I always use. Just some water placed in the tray from my daughter's high-chair ... drops from a wet sponge ... remote w/ timer. LEARNING!!!!!!!!! I'm learning baby!!!!

Hmmm? It was such a nice photo...I was really hoping it would do better then it did even though it had a very respectable rating.

Well composed photo - too "stopped motion" for my taste, not much action.

You're right. This little action moved me to give you a pretty decent score. Nice composition. 8
