I ran Silver Efex Pro antique solarization filter, which washed the image out and added the burned border. Since I could no longer see most of the wire fence the hose was hanging on, I cloned the rest out. The things that look like water drops are just light blobs coming through the fence. Here is the original:

Ooooh - the possessed nozzle!! I recognized the solarization from my excursions with Silver Efex. This is a nice use for it. I'm still trying to find a good use for one of my own shots, since it does end up being a rather nifty result!

Not a fan of the burnt border, I know its random but looks a little thick and boxy to me. That said I think the actual image is great but keep getting drawn to the border :)

That's interesting. What's it hanging on?

That hose is possessed! What a creepy cool shot! I think the border goes well too, it's like the hose is framing the shot!

This crazy hose is spraying water everywhere, but where is it coming from? Cool shot!

How did you get the hose to pose for you like that. ;) This is a very cool creation.

Oh that's wild with the burned edge. Very cool and fitting with the hose and all. :~)

I don't know how I feel about this image. But I applaud you for taking a very cool risk. And I like the "burned" edges.

Man Ray meets mescal!
Presumably it wouldn't have been their first meeting.
