Hi from the Critique Club.

First impression: Flying water and fun!

Technicals: Technically this image looks good. To my eyes the focus looks sharp and colors are clear. Tough lighting and it provides good impact with the brightly lit water droplets.

Composition: I agree with one of your commentators. A slightly off center crop would strengthen the image. IMHO, a little more above his head would also give the picture more dynamic strength. It just needs a little more context.

Post Processing: You made nice work with the tough lighting conditions. Your sharpening system seems to have worked rather well too.

Good score in the challenge, anything approaching 6 means you struck a cord with some of the voters.

I̢۪m not an expert so PM me with any questions or comments. Keep shooting!

I'd like just a little more light to show the stem of the glass

Voted earlier and back now to comment.

Beautiful. I love the fact that you chose a textured glass. For me, it adds a little more interest and sets it apart from similar shots. I wish there had been more light at the base, but since I can relate to the difficulties with these shots, I'm not about to vote you down for it. - 10

The soft focus on the flame works well in this photo.

A really interesting idea and a cute title. Just a bit unfortunate with the stem.

How this did not end up further up the chain is beyond me. Great shot.
