Great capture that should have finished higher IMO. I really like the slight movement of the balloon with the frozen water, I do agree with some of the comments about being high key, but it doesn't make the shot unworthy of a 6+ in my eyes. Great work.

Wow, what a catch. Looks like you're holding a wine glass made of water. And somebody has hung a bra up above it. LOL I really like the composition and colors on that background. Did ya use one of those long nails to pierce the balloon? Or are you missing a digit? JK. LOL

This is one of the better exploding water balloon shots as the balloon is not obstructed by the waterball, but the white background doesn't provide many contrast with the water and the water is hard to make out. There is an odd coloration on the hand that could've been leveled out. With that said, the good still outweighs the bad and this is a quality shot.

The detail is lost in the softness here. Needs more definition.

I don't know what am I looking at. Seems too bright too.

Great colors, lighting and clarity… I didn’t care for the border very much though. Scored it high, good luck.

Wow...i've alot of questions...

Is the hand underwater?
Is that the hand of a man or a woman?
Are those leaves?

Regardless...it's fun and playful!

Well, this is just plain confusing. A very artistic shot and for once, a frame really adds to it! But the viewer (at least me) is left wondering what the heck they are looking at.

Nice timing on this one. I just realized after staring at it for a minute that it is a bursting water balloon. Well done.

Great shot! Took me a second to figure it out...

Nice job and great processing. I like the way the subject is diagonally across the image.

a dark back ground to me would have been much better. I like it though.

This is fantastic... just the white background loses the effect IMO
