shoting water again

i tried my hands on capturing water again..this time i dropped ice on the water to create the splash effect that i wanted. again, shot with a sb600 external flash ( its just so fun playing with it :D). this time with different setup. i used a white background for this. you will never imagine the total mess created by this :D prepared 3 dry cloths to "wipe em out" the water...enjoy. any constructive comments and critiques appreciated. thanks for viewing!
