This is a wonderful shot. It seems to lack a bit of focus, but maybe that was your intent? I relly like the concept.

Vanish into ...

Thanks for all of the helpful comments. I took this shot at about 6am one morning, when there were no people out. The slow shutter speed helped to get the effect on the water. I had gone out without any intention of taking the photo. In fact, I had to find a place to set my camera down and use as a secure surface for this photo because I did not have a tripod with me and the shutter speed (2.5 seconds) was way too slow for handheld. I snapped about 15-20 shots, but the very first shot was the best. This shot is of a slums in Brazil that is built over and along side the creek. Only some of the houses have electricity and none have indoor plumbing. During the rainy season, the water will rise above the wooden walkway and people will use canoes to get to thier homes. A very unique location and by far my favorite photo that I took for this competition. Thanks again for all the useful comments.
