Here's the photo I stated with. I wanted to make the ripples more prominent,

which led me to this. Of course, I have to keep pushing it, just to see what happens.

After several incarnations, it's starting to look pretty strange and science fiction-y. But I don't stop yet...

Okay, this is too weird, even for me.

I decided to go with the science fiction theme here. I wanted to test my skills and see if I could make it look like the moon was coming out of, (or going into) the water.

It could certainly use some improvement, but I'm making progress! what do you think?
