Does "water" include the parasite infested pond scum which comes out of our taps, or only the bottled stuff?

I guess the thing is it has to not look like water - what it actually is is of course up to you.

I think the non water thing is to keep us from shooting landscapes with water in them. This challenge will likely warrant 99% studio shots. I already have a few ideas.

B***** typical!
We're due some reasonable weather over the next few days after 2 weeks of seemingly non stop rain and we get a challenge banning us from going outside. (Please excuse the *slight* exageration ; ) )
It's a conspiracy I tell ya!
LOL.

Anyone know where I can find magma in Michigan?

How deep are you prepared to dig?

I know mud is dirt mixed with water but is it still water? I got lots of mud just oozing down over my patio at the moment...is it considered water?

I don't know about mud, but glass is a liquid at room temperature.

No, that's because they're transparent - they don't actually disappear, you just can't see them.

oh, did I misunderstand something?

And bod - since when has shooting indoors been a problem for you? :-)

I think it would be great if we didn't start naming out ideas for this challenge... in case someone had a really neat idea... and it was used as an example here and 3 other people decided to use it...

I personally would not like if someone spelled out my idea so 5 other people could copy it...

It increase the competition for sure, but if someone is wise enough to have thought of it and posted in the forums, that also means the idea is a common one where you are just another person who have thought of it. I like brain-storming sessions and then decide how I can use one idea and make it truly "mine"

Unless you were planning on digging for magma, making mud, looking for stained glass, or taking shots of water (which I think WILL CLEARLY NOT MEET THE CHALLENGE), I think your idea is safe.
