I made the angel with a rag and rubber bands. she is out of focus while the water way behind her is in focus. I used levels and curves to brighten and increase contrast. I used selective color to change the dim green to a spunkier blue.

Interesting choice of focal point... many would have focused on the angel, or kept the aperature small and had both the water and angel in focus. I like your interpretation of this... the texture on the water complements the angel nicely. Good shot.

I love how clear the water is here.... but I cant tell what the heck the thing in the middle is.... im guessing its your "angel" of the waters. But there's really nothing there...
