Thank you...I am person born of Greece though not actually born there
You capture the absolute essence of what stirs me and keeps Greece within
me always no matter where I am in the world. And the brick and blue background
frame it in the two colors from Greece that I keep around me in my home to
bring me the peace I find there.

A perfect capture, Joe, that is enhanced by your choice of background color and framing. Love it (wish I could manage it :-)). Helen

Joe, I really like how the drop tower takes center stage here...the crystal vessel makes everything seem like a continuous mass of flowing water & allows for such beautiful play of light in your subject. The background contrast & DOF effect really enhances the scene. Beautiful capture. MFC

Well Joe you are one of my favorites and this lives up to your high standard of images.
I spent hours trying this kind of shot and did not get the results I wanted but along the way realized how difficult it was. Excellent comp, colors and all together create a mind-blowing image.

Beautiful Chrome like drop shot! The pinnacle is mercurial, the swirls mesmerizing. Great colour choice to off set it. Very well captured Joe, and presented. ~Irish
