This was quite a setup, but had fun doing it :)

Fed a hosepipe through our cat's litter box and filled it up with sand. Stuck the sprayer head to cardboard and positioned it in such a way that the nozzle protruded from a makeshift hole.

Next step, dirtied a shirt to put as a background, and used bricks to balance firelighters below it for the flames.

Waited for night time.

Turned on the hose, shot 20 quick shots before there was mud everywhere.

Got some cool outtakes which I'll post later.

Bit sad about having the ISO at 800, but with all the movements and trying to find your way in the dark, it had to be done.

I'm not too stressed if this doesnt do well cause I'm very satisfied with the results.

:)

You worked hard on this one, I admire your effort, and I wish this would have done better. Sometimes though, it's about your personal satisfaction with the results, though, and I really love what you've done here. Hope you do too. It's a great image.

The little bits flying all over make this almost look like it's moving. I like that.
