Duck submerged under water. The plastic container provided the grunge look along with the bubbles. I wish there were more bubbles but this will have to do.

Well, at least some were able to get it.

My first thought with this is that it feels really dreamy. The background is awesome. You have done a wonderful job at getting a feeling to come through the photo, the title is not even needed on this.
I never though I would really go on this much about a ducky photo :)
Those little white particles 'raining' down on the ducky either makes me think of small stars raining down in a dream sequence, the early joy of snowflakes starting to fall, or fairydust being sprinkled down in a otherworldly encounter. Either way the composition certainly sparks the imagination. Love how the Ducky of choice is posed in such a way that it appears to being looking up with mouth wide open with wonder/joy at this wonderful sight. Lighting is wonderful. The blue background was a great choice for a backdrop because not only does it add to the setting but it helps the white speckles and the duck visually pop off the page. Well done bumping up to a 9.
It's a nice clear shot, but I'm not sure what all the white points are. Doesn't really have an impact or "cleverness" about it for this sort of Challenge. ;-)
