Stearing wheel is a hula hoop with rope wrapped around it, the wood part I made to make it look a little more realistic. The pipe is a corn cob but I added wood putty to give it a better shape, then I spray painted it blue. My jacket and face is actually soaked but I forgot to spray my hands and the stearing wheel!! I wasn't going to add the smoke to the pipe, because of the "rain" but then added it anyway. Shot with a softbox on each my sides and one parabolic in front. Oh...the sky is actual sky from a storm I shot through my hotel window while in Pittsburgh. I like doing these kind of shots... :-)

Origional idea, I like the title too. Would have like to have seen your jacket hosed down so it looked wet.
