@jgpittenger - Here are the exposure settings as you wished... hope they help. You should bear in mind that this was taken while panning. So the shot is set at a very high speed to ensure that the splash is captured with the water splashes fixed without blur - I like the effect of water captured at high speed. Its all sparkly - LOL>

ExposureTime - 1/1000 seconds
FNumber - 6.30
ISOSpeedRatings - 400
ApertureValue - F 6.30
FocalLength - 200 mm
ExposureMode - Manual
White Balance - Custom
SceneCaptureType - Standard
Quality - RAW
Flash mode - Not fired

Once, when I was in England visiting my son, I wasted a whole morning trying to capture something like this but failed miserably and made a laughing stock for myself within the family. Gorgeous capture.
