Gosh, 100th shot so very bored of this now ;D

Taken in my lounge with camera set to timer delay. Used flash to freeze-frame the action. The glass was upright whilst i dropped a cherry tomato in to the water in order to create a splash. Flipped in photoshop as it seemed a lot more dramatic that way.

PS -levels and a lot of spot editing on all the tiny droplets of water.

I am sure will do very good... It is one of the best and it wasn't easy with so many beautiful photos around. Good luck with it!

very different

Very neat picture. The old glass in the aquarium setup? The only thing I don't like is the roundness at the base of the glass - but I still think the image is excellent!

Nice clear image with good exposure. What is that orange thing?

Love the look of the water splash, and your lighting looks perfect. The glass looks odd to me just hanging perfectly straight upside down "in the air". Also, I don't care for the perfectly centered composition - it just doesn't seem dynamic enough. 8

I would have preferred the glass not to be upside down

For a minute there I thought you attempted to recreate a shot similar to kiwi's previous ribbon winner, but then I realized how you did this. Nice capture and 180 degree rotation to change it up a little. 8 for now

One of the top 3, brilliant shot .:10:.

Great work! I love it. In my opinio, I´d only made a change in your picture. I prefer not to see the orage thing in the picture. 7

Wow! Inverted or not, it's beautiful.
12/16/2003 10:30:40 PM
Wow! How did you do that! Amazing shot!

I get the feeling that this is a picture of the red ball dropping into the glass of water that was turned 180 degrees after being taken. As shown, it seems to be impossible - why isn't the water running out and why is the red ball staying at the bottom? An interesting picture.

I love the lines and contrast in this photo, great work.
12/15/2003 09:22:02 PM
nice inverted (?) shot. Good stuff!
12/15/2003 12:27:53 PM
Kool.....Fishtank? I love this but stumped as to how it was done. Nice shooting.

Very crisp and sharp focusing. Composition is pleasing to the eye. Incredible highlights in the water and the glass. The orange subject helps to give the viewer some focus in the piece. The black background frames the subject very well and helps to make the central subject pop out.Absolutely beautiful.

I would have give you more if you had not rotate the image. It looks better when it's like it should be.

A few weeks I would have probably asked you how this photo was done, now I have a guess. :-) I like the simplicity of colours very much, and the clarity of the water, too. It might be strange to hear this, but being the photo upside down gives it too much wow factor for my personal taste. :-) Don't misunderstand me, I love the photo very much! I just wonder how my way of approaching photos change with time. Excellent work, and good luck. :-)

This is a very neat looking shot and I'm very impressed. I'm not sure what the orange object is there for, I think I might have liked it more without that, but it is still very nice
