    These are my favorite shot, when the water just plays like that I can help to just love the shot no matter what :) Congratulations!

    Great find, details and moment captured. I also like the ripples and would remove the sheen on the bill. Thanks for sharing!

    Agree, the water drops and frozen details makes this one.

    The water action just puts this over the top, especially the longer strand running down the body. It looks rather refreshing! I'm sure others agree in regards the the bill sheen, but for me on this particular image I find it OK as the bill was obviously wet - the sheen gives it that look of wetness.

    Good look-back head angle. The face could go a bit brighter and the image could use a Hue-Sat boost as it looks a bit like Kodachrome 64.
