My first critique for ages and a quality image to do. The motion is stopped well, and the slight blur in the water droplets really emphasises the motion. Nice framing. The green background works well with the gold colour of the subject. No unecissary clutter. Nice image, well done.

Bonjour tony,

Good use of the high shutter speed, here. Your experiment works well.
I was wondering about the result if it was to be even higher, but I guess you made the good choice, by keeping the motion blur.
Seing your "background", which balances well the composition, I wonder if it was made by a long lens or a macro lens. The fact that the sprinkler head is not razor sharp (no problem with that!) makes me think of the long lens.
Although I really prefer the vertical here, I think it may be funny too to see the water droplets sparkling further away, in an horizontal composition...

Thanks for sharing.
