This week's theme is the sea of refreshing: splash! Or what is the same, splash, splash. You are going to have to get wet and I mean get wet in the literal sense of the word ?
HOW DOES IT WORK? (REMINDER)
Every week I will propose a new challenge , it is a topic that you will have to capture in a photograph and upload it to the Facebook page of the blog, putting in the description the keyword that I will indicate for each topic. The themes will be varied, from portraits to Macro photography, going through landscapes, black and white photography, or babies. The topics will be proposed on Saturdays, so that you have the whole weekend to work on them. You will have one week to upload your photograph (one photo per participant), until Friday of the following week. On Friday or Saturday I will update the article with the photo that has captivated me the most and I will propose a new topic, and so…
WEEKLY CHALLENGE 95: SPLASH
You may be wondering why I call it splash if there is a word in Spanish that defines the same concept, well, it is for several reasons, one because I find it more attractive and two, and mainly, because that is how I encompass splash and splash with a single word. ?
That the water is very attractive to photograph you have already realized, what I still do not know is if you have tried it, that is why this week I challenge you to do it because it is a wonderful way to practice and learn. I know it's not easy, you'll have to be patient, but when you get a result you like, you'll jump like water! Who says water says other liquids, eh? Maybe it can help you to read this article or this other one, as advice or inspiration. Try to be original and take care of the composition. The key is to freeze the movement of the water (or any liquid) for which you will need to use very fast speeds and... patience ? which, as a good photographer, I know you have! And just as water, coffee or any other liquid does not matter, it can also be the splash of an animal, a person or an object (or all!), the possibilities are endless, so... come on, I want to see those splashes funny and well focused !
As usual, to participate in this week's challenge upload your photo to the Facebook wallfrom the Photographer's Blog: In the description of the photo please mention the keyword “Splash Challenge” followed by a title of your choice.

UPDATE
Well I was wrong! And how! I thought that since it was a very specific challenge, the response would be rather weak, but it was the opposite! You have sent many photos and of great quality. I repeat myself more than garlic, I know, and I have no choice but to thank you again, and from the bottom of my heart, for continuing to participate. I must also congratulate you, what great photos! And how difficult you make it...

The photo that has caught my attention the most this week has been that of Jose RL «Falling Strawberry». I like that he used milk as a liquid to make it stand out even more and create an excellent color harmony. He has known how to perfectly freeze the movement of the milk while he has played very well with the depth of field, blurring the background while bringing softness to the texture of the strawberry. The image is fresh, attractive and sweet, as much as the red fruit that causes the "splash". I love the idea of the spoon, with the strawberry and the milk they seem ready to be consumed directly... it's so appetizing that I think I'm going to prepare some strawberries right now!! This image must not have been easy to achieve, so congratulations! Keep it up friends and friends of the blog.
