If this is the photo where my comment offended you, let me say I like the way you caught the water frozen as it dropped. However, the picture, at least for me, is way too busy... my eye doesn't really catch any thing (except the water), and w/o your comments it does not immediately tell me a story.

I'm not sure if this is a failed attempt at a slow shutter or is you left the shutter open to long unintentionally. A lot of great color, but the white on the bottom pulls my attention and it doesn't fit the challenge very well.

sweet photo... and in your photo it is as if the ground itself is "letting go" of it's water. Better I think just to have left this photograph untitled, and let its mystery speak for itself. A lovely photograph!

This is a beautiful spot. The image might be better cropped differently or with better color/contrast.

Beautiful image, full of movement. I can almost hear the water! I hope you did say where is this location.

I like backpacking as well. This looks like a great spot, and I kind of wish I had been taggin along. For technique, I would have tried to get better focus, and more depth of field to get the entire image sharper.

Feeling of letting go... of water? OK! Like the abstraction.

can't think of anything good or bad to say. Looks like a mess.
