think "creativity" might be a problem for all the submitters of waterdrops in this challenge?

I almost went with water, but decided against it to veer away from the "standard"

we'll see if it pays off....

here's my 2 rejects (my submitted looks NOTHING like either of these!)

Wow Eric, sensational, especially the one with the adult .... I love the way the water almost looks like a bubble.

Now ... can we see the next photo taken in the series, 1/2 a sec later, as she loses the smile as the water hits her *laugh*

Can't wait to see your entry if these are rejects!

They are both very neat...but I think that water was the obvious choice for this challenge and I'm seeing a lot of it in the thumbnails...

I gotta agree, that 2nd one is a WOW! shot.

Damn those waterdrops, though. I spent the whole week trying to come up with something--ANYTHING--other than a waterdrop for Stopped Motion, but couldn't come up with anything good. :( So I didn't submit anything. Guess I need to work on my creative brainstorming skills or something.
