Do not bend!

[steeb]

I was experimenting with water drops and I thought this shot looked quite good, apart from the edge of the bowl in the bottom left corner, Do you think I should have removed this little flaw from the image? Please give any advice on how this picture could be improved. Look forwards to any advice you can offer.

I've gone back and forth, and I think that it should be removed.
Also, there are various black specks, and a white one or two, above the words that I don't like. As well as the two white curve-stripe things that are above the 'P' and 'D'. They distract me for some reason--which could just be me

But other than that...I really like it! The color and the fact that you are "bending with water" after being told not to

Good luck!

Thanks for your comments. This pic was made up by using an fuji film envolope which is a little bit grubby. I must admit the specs of dirt i had not really noticed in the picture (well paid attention to), unfortunatly they are magnified by the water, but i can remove these with PS. I will also have a go at removing the curved white lines and the corner of the dish.
cheers

I am sooo nit picky when it comes to little specks! They can drive me crazy sometimes!

Also, you might consider fixing the bottom right-hand corner. The bowl begins to start showing there as well.

What would we do without PS?!
Good luck and I do hope you will post your finished product!

Just spent 20 mins or so cleaning up the spots and removed the edge of the bowl/ white lines... let me know what you think.

The extra effort in the edit paid off, the first was a little ... meh nice concept, poor execution... the cleaned one... well I might just have to try me that... doubt I have the patience, skill or equipment so I will just enjoy yours.
