I had Isaac pose with the spatula while he was taking his shower. Had to use the flash to get a decent image. But, I figured that even without barbecue sauce this was "tasteful."
Isaac also pointed out to me that we have depictions of two funny and confusing words--scapula and spatula--in the same image (and now in the same sentence!).
Cropped, adjusted the image with a couple of tone curves for contrast and color. Created a layer partially filled with a sampled color; ran the Clouds filter and adjusted the contrast and opacity until it looked "misty" enough to me.

Thanks, I think you have the right idea, except for suggesting I make Isaac stand in a cold shower!
That wasn't really necessary anyhow, as I've apparently fooled you with (as I recall) a Photoshop effect and not real lens fog ... there was no "mist" as the shower was tepid, and I think I had to use the flash to get a decent exposure, freezing the large drops (not very mist-like).
First off might I say to you - I love the humor that you have allowed this image to possess by giving it such a hilarious title. It definately helps one to understand where you are coming from when you took this photograph.
Now, to be honest with you. I would have had the young man in the image stand more in from of the shadows in which his body throws off from the light, yet still managing to cover the portion of the body that you have along with spatula just as you have it.
I realize that your title read "Griller", although it is known that hot water will cause any "glass" materials to fog up. Thus you can see it did this to your lense. I would suggest that any future projects such as this that you turn the cold water on just for a little bit that way you can get the mist clearly without the fog distracting the lens. Although the fog does make one clearly visualize the heat in the shower, it takes away from the quality of the image.
This Picture should have gotten a better score than what it did. At least a top ten. it reminds me of being a kid and doing crazy things in the bathroom. Keep up the good work.
I'm sorry, I don't get it. I don't understand the purpose of this photo in the nude challenge. Plus, the foginess on the lense doesn't help this photo technically either. The composition is ok. 2
