Hi Robbo
I think they're very good for first attempts and that the advice RJL2005 gave you on the other thread is spot on! ... The only thing I would add is try the shots with some colour in the water as it really helps to bring out the contrast and as you say use a background. I find wrapping paper can work really well as can magazines etc. Keep at it and you'll get some excellent shots, it really does need a lot of practice to find the best setting for your camera set up
