I love everything about this. From the instant I saw it, I knew it would be difficult for anything to compete with it, and I'm a huge fan of water in photographs.
The expression, the colours, the patterns of the water in the air, everything just comes together to make an amazing final result. Well done!

***This contest is open to subscribers (members on the Challenger, Pro and Master subscription tiers). However if you're not a paying subscriber you can still purchase entries for £2 (GBP) per image.*** Colour is one of the essential building blocks of a photo's composition. When used thoughtfully, it can create endlessly striking effects. Whether sombre, bright, bold or muted – colours can be used to define the character and mood of your subject; implying meaning and setting tone. It's also a really fun way to bring energy in your shots. So, get creative and show us what you can do!
This photo made me smile immediately. The little guy has an amazing expression, and great taste in music. What more could you want?
The lighting works well, although I would've tried to level the CD case a little, or angled the shot to get it straight.
I think, possibly, I would've gone with a plain black shirt. I get the obvious connection between the shirt and the CD, but with the writing and logo being obscured, it may be better to go without to draw more attention towards his face. Of course, the shirt is where most of the vibrant colour is right now.
