There are many compositional elements that I like in this shot. You have a couple of great contrasts here. Round/Straight, Light/Shadow, Smooth/Fuzzy-Textures, Black Letters/Light colored ball.

There are also a couple of elements that I think could be improved. A B/W shot like this I am finding come out with more impact if they have a little more contrast. This would help to further define the roundness of the spere. If you had a (very slightly) deeper DOF you would also accentuate the sperical qualities and also bring out even more of the fuzzy texture. Also I'm sure you noticed as did several commentors, your shot is slightly crooked. This is an easy fix in PS.

All in all a very nice study type of shot that with a little tweaking could be a great one!

Very fun image! There seems to be a bit of digital noise here--look closely at the edges of things andyou can see the boxy, square pixelly things. Colors are marvelous, and composition wonderful!

Very clear and sharply focused. The shadow of the water is distracting to me, but everyone else might love it ;). Nice photo.

It's a classic and it still runs

THis looks a bit too much like digital art to me. the colors are over equalized and there is an unnatural look to the drops and the edges of the water. Nice creative shot and title, though./

Image is very interesting. Colors in the water is wonderful. Background frames the composition very nicely. Unfortunately this looks overprocessed.
