I'm surprised this didn't score higher. For some reason, voters prefer the water drop reflections that show the reflected image/object in the background. I find those shots ruin the "trick" by showing the image/object in the background not to mention it doesn't make the shot better by including it (rather the opposite). Anyway, good job here.
I still love this photo. I am still a bit confused how you managed to keep the drop spherical. It seems the gravity would have pulled it to be ... hum ... drop shaped. I will have to try this.
Great shot!

Stunning. I only wish (and this is a very small nitpick) that the pink color next to the "9" had the edge smoothed out a little bit instead of dipping in like that. Otherwise this is perfect.
Excellent shot IMO. Improvement suggestions
- would have gone for tighter crop
- need to get the sharp point of the needle sharper (I think this is where you will get dinged for)
