Love the composition and the water drops but you really need to run noise reduction on this. Up in the right hand corner and along the bottom you've either got a fair amount of posterization going on or that is some heavy duty noise! Did you do a really big crop on this? If so, that might be the reason.
nice compo and cool colors!! i see the posterization too. question: do you think it would be better if you cropped a bit off the right and bottom to eliminate that dead space in the lr corner? just a thought!
