I love how you can see the bottom of the water, I think that adds a lot to the shot. I think the photo would have benefitted from a little duck floating along ;)
Regardless, this is a really cool shot.
The angle that you captured this photo from and the depth of focus is awesome and allows the viewer to see especially the artifact where the water level drops in the middle more than on the edges. Its also cool to see a different water level than other photos.
I really enjoy the level that this photo was taken at, being at water level at the top then seeing the downhill flow of the water and the concave in of the water surface as it transitions to turbulent.
Great angle on this image. I like that you were able to capture both the top of the surface and the bottom of the surface in the same image.
I like the diagonal in this photo. I think the flow over the bumps is well demonstrated. I wonder why it gets a little turbulent at the end?
This image reminds me of playing with blocks as I was growing up. This comes from including the base of the setup and keeping the strong shapes of the object and the fluid. I really enjoy this image. The smoothness of the beginning is great, and the turbulence at the end is cool.
