thx for looking

An unconventional crop that works really well for me; the water droplets make it work! Love the low angle, sharpness, and eye contact too.

[Manos Papadomanolakis]

the water droplets makes the image,nice angle too!!!

[Alfred Forns]

Crop is just right for me Might be even stronger taking about quarter of the oof bottom !!! Like it a lot !!

[Axel Hildebrandt]

Great angle, pose and splash. Does it need a bit CCW rotation? I would clone out the vertical lines in the lower left.

[Ramon M. Casares]

I agree with Doug, Axel and Alfred 100%, love it! Congratulations!

[David Thomasson]

Wonderful shot. All I would suggest is brightening the subject (and water drops!) a bit and dimming the background a little.
