Tom, I really like the different colored droplets! Eye is nice and sharp. TFS

Tom, what I like here is that although the image is covered by flying droplets ( which I like ) the duck is still very visible and sharp where it counts. Good low perspective, and interesting that the droplets show up as different colours - angle of light?

Sweet bathing image, Tom. Good job getting the eye clear of all that splashing. Like Stuart, I want more information on the colors of the droplets. So interesting.

Wow, I love the Skittles falling from the sky!! Great stuff, love the action and perfect head and body angles of the subject. Low angle provides an appealing perspective to this bathing image. Great BG too. You could get away with a bit of a crop from below but certainly nice as is too.

The droplets covering the whole image is what I like also about this image. I recall that I had the sun behind me but turned the camera about 30 degrees to take this image. So the skittle effect must be the angle of the light hitting the water droplets.

The light was still harsh and the problem with this spot is that when the light is sweet the area were the ducks hang out is in shade due to large trees.
