I like it a lot! Only thing might be, I don't know about using Red and Blue, or Orange and Blue. I might have tried yellow and blue, or green and blue, but I think the red doesn't blend as well as it might. That's just me though!

I like this one the most...the colours are neat, and the falling drop is in about the right place. Looks like a mini earthquake-tsunami there.
Man, Japan has an overwhelming task ahead.
My heart goes out to them folks...

Just one note - looking at the exif data on this one....I see that the shutter speed was on 1/30s....that's not fast enuff to capture water drops...if you want it sharp, you need to use at least 1/500s.

Yes, it doesn't matter what lighting source you use...the shutter speed must be fast enough to properly "freeze" the action. 1/30s isn't quick enough to do that with a 'moving' subject....you need at least 1/350s and up for that.

i like this pic the way it is
But i want to ad my take on the shutter speed:shutter speed in this case is not necessarily wrong depending on the amount of available light becouse i have tried the same thing in a low light setting and using the flash at different power settings therefore is the flash duration that determines the exposure and not the shutter speed
