Greetings from the critique club!

This has been mentioned before but I'll reiterate anyways. I think the only problem with this shot is the lack of separation between the drops forming the three and the background. Perhaps larger drops might have helped. One thing I did pick up on which I appreciate is that you printed the background backwards so that the words would be mirrored in the drops and therefore display correctly. I also agree that a shallower DOF would have helped. (I wonder how it would have turned out at f/2.8?)

Good subject and composition. More contrast would make this image stand out more.

A bit gloomy - maybe slightly underexposed? Nice composition though.

Shallower DOF would be nice, blurring the print behind.

I really wish the background was more blurred and the Odd's were a lot larger.

nice use of droplets to create the focus lenses for the shot - the only issue i see is that the 3 itself is not separated enough from the oof background

Cute -- A little contrived, but very powerful. It took me a while to figure out what "PPO" stood for (Doh!). Did you try a lower case "O", then "PPo" may have been more apparent as the inverse "odd"?

Nice effect, almost like ballet. Too bad the one guy's foot is cut off and the ref's face is blocked.
