Title ideas: Washing the Car, Getting Wet, Sprayed, Blasted, Car Wash, Burst, Nozzle
Hopefully this won't get voted down for someone looking at it and saying: "this doesn't say 'mode of transportation' to me." We'll see what happens.
It was Saturday, I was doing chores and decided to pull out the camera and see if I could get anything interesting for this challenge. I began with abstract angles, but they weren't very intriguing. Back to business, I started washing the car, and that's when I got the idea for a shot like this. This was, IMO, the best of the 77 that made it to my computer. The rest were deleted on spot. Only 16 on these 77 are taken with slower exposure like this one. But I didn't like those as much once I got to the computer.
Editing consisted of: cropping, b&c, levels, saturation, resizing, sharpening, a tiny bit of blurring, border

Well balanced composition, and a neat idea. Lacks jjust that touch of punch - perhaps either a faster or slower shutter would have either frozen the water or blurred it more completely? This seems to fall rather halfway, to me. Would love to see it really fast, freezing that action :-) 6
