Wow. I'm still trying to figure out if this is stop motion or a trick with a stick, an orange gumball, and some monofillament line. Either way it's a great picture.
Beautiful take on the 'drop' shot. The gradation of your BG from bottom to top is nice and even. The metal and orange also work well together. Good capture.
Good try and good capture of action. I just feel the light could of been improved. Do you see at the back of the cup where it's dark? Also the front of the cup at the bottom. Other then the small (and they are small defects) spots, this is a good entry. I hope you do well.
Wish I'd thought of this... :) Very nice composition with the negative space at the top of the image leaving "room" for that drop to fly up as high as it would like to. Nice whites and silver cup, making the whole thing feel very monochromatic and drawing our attention to the orange color. Only distraction is the somewhat uneven reflections in the orange liquid - window panes or some such? But overall good capture!
