Melissa- Good day my friend. Isn't there something special about the way water splashes and the interesting looks you get from it. I love the action of the water as these lucious looking strawberries drop down into them. Lighting and clarity are outstanding. Cloror are popping, I love the redness of the strawberries. the water action is incredible. Definitions are percise.
Fabulous work
Have a most wonderful day, take care, enjoy #6183326
