thought of calling em water droplets .. but they're splashes mah ... water droplets would be droplets 'frozen' while falling =)

nice shots,
IMO, posting so many pics of the droplets... makes it feel very boring and not unique, it would be better if u just posted maybe 2 or 3 of them ...

You posted an entire string of similar photos. If you can't pick one that you feel confident about for critique, it would suggest that you're trying to compensate a lack of quality with an increase in quantity.

I'm sure you could get more impressive results if you concentrated on getting _one_ picture right. It would also mean that you could easily respect the guidelines of this forum which only allow ONE SINGLE PHOTO PER USER PER WEEK. How can you expect people to spend a reasonable effort of serious thought over your pictures when you don't even make the effort to select the one to post?
