Good try but I just feel that if there are two components to this photograph (the original image and the camera technique/distortion/filter) then together they don't amount to more than the sum of their individual parts.

I've placed your photograph second in my ranking. You've reworked a very common motif very well by getting in close to give it an almost abstract feel. I wonder if the rocks in the foreground and background pull me back into reality to quickly: what was your aim in including them? The blue tone adds to the dreamy feeling. Overall, a very accomplished piece of work. Well done.

Congratulations on achieving a beautiful impression and mood without resorting to obviously distorted representation. This hits the mark for me because I can make my own interpretation of this scene without having it spelt out. I hope this wins.

Closer crop would be better IMO. Good though.
