Very nice Maria, an inspired shot. Do you think it might work better with a narrower vertical crop at the top and bottom? Well taken.

Thank you all for your kind comments, there's nothing deep in this, i just happened to see my Grandsons reflection and the pretty raindrops and his chubby hand on the glass as he tried to heave himself up, thanks again Maria

Very good image, the little palm draws attention towards the reflection in the mirror but blurred by the marks on it makes one wonder.

This is an eye-catching shot, but I can't work out where the main focus is. The hand, reflection, or water drops. Nevertheless, I like it.

To be honest i didn't get chance to focus properly on any of it, i was worried that he might fall, it would have been interesting to see how it would have turned out though, a moment in time was lost i suppose, maybe i'll get another chance when he's a little steadier, thanks for your comment

It's eye-catching, that's for sure. I believe in capturing the moment; if it doesn't turn out well, then so be it. But we'd always regret not taking the photo! I think its amazing!
