Ooo, so close -- this is almost a fabulous image. Your approach is sort of in between techniques: fast shutter to capure the droplets or slow shutter to make the falling water look as smooth as silk. Either way, definitely a tripod and timer/cable release is the way to go.
There is not enough contrast between the water and the lower material it is spilling over. The image also appears blurred as though taken by hand at a slow shutter speed.
