Excellent Capture Ty ! .. great use of a fast shutter speed ( I checked ) .. just fast enough to get in focus and still have the water a little softened and extended ( which looks much better IMO )

I hope you didn't get the D90 too wet !!! he looks like he was trying to empty the pool lol !!

thanks for combining two of your favorite things and getting a great shot like this .. made me smile Bud !
