 A close-up of a tank full of liquified oxygen at a hospital next to work. There is always an ice like substance forming and spitting off the lines where they exit the tank - it must be exceptionally cold.

Minimal editing was performed on this shot - I had hoped for no editing and took the shot at 640x480 in camera. A little desaturation and USM work (thanks Brett) really bought the photo to life though.

I really like the textures in this - a novel approach. The even lighting looks almost like a 3D rendering. The small element to the left of the composition is distracting and I'd like to see more of the bottom parts. Outside of the challenge though, this shot would be fairly bland to most.
