    Mondo,

    Good shot though there's a few things I would do personally to improve it IMO. The shot seems soft and a tad grainy...was this taken digitally or film? Also, I'd try black and white just as the colors are quite dull and I think black and white could give it that extra "oomph" for it.

    Well done and good potential.

    There is a lot of noise in the shot. How was it taken?

    I would fill the crop and fill the frame with all the splashes since the composition doesn't lend itself to anything IMO.

    Yes, black and white will look great with this.

    To be honest, I really don't know what to make of this--aside from the previously mentioned noise in the shot. A closer crop might work, but I'm not sure if it would do much to enhance the overall feel.

    While this did not quite work it shows that you are willing to try things to get good pics. Well done for that.
