I must apologise. I know this is a crappy edit and a terribly unpolished idea. I know there is SO much wrong with it! This image went from concept to entry in under 1 1/4 hrs, including printing the photo (on a dodgy little inkjet printer), with 2 minutes to spare. It was stinkin' hot and I was running around madly trying to put all the bits together and had my kids grabbing bits and pieces from the shed and moving stuff around... I love my kids dearly, you know... they understand and help and follow stupid directions really well.

As [user]gcoulson[/user] said: "I think the idea is certainly there, very creative! Just lacked on the execution side of things in terms of lighting, focus, processing etc." I agree with everything except the part about the focus :)

So... thanks for the votes guys! I know this could have been so much more than it is, so I appreciate whatever it ends up at :)

I don't like the processing (IMO it completely destroys the photo) but the idea is wonderful.

This is a good idea, but I find the picture itself to be blown out and not very well done overall, the blue lines in the background are also very distracting, not sure what they are, the tap also looks overdone as is the water itself.

But like I said, with a bit more thought and planning this could of looked awesome!

In my top 5. Super creative and great composition.

Love this idea. the lines are all a bit hard, maybe some over sharpening? But still, the idea is top notch.

great idea, with slightly different processing it'd be amazing. either way great job.
