Nail clippers? This is pretty friggin creative. It's a bit wonky on my eyes, trying to figure out why the water is on top, but the unexpected is very cool.
As an abstract, this is an engaging shot but since I'm looking at it in the context of the topic, I can't identify the image (looks like nail clippers?) so I've scored it lower than it may deserve.
At the sophisticated end of photographic practice, a very clever trick of the eye - particularly in thumbnail view. Nothing to do with the challenge, but wonderfully quirky. I like it.
