The fountain at Belagio in Las Vegas. I took a ton of shots, and had some really good candidates, but for some reason I inverted this, and it just looked cool.
Kind of abstract... capturing the velocity of the water canons (it looks pretty cool right-side-up as well).
pp:
convert from raw (two different exposure temps)
combined in CS3
rotate 180
crop (this looks so much better large)
cropped out some very minor background lights & reflections
curves
contrast
ni on top water
USM
border
SFW
Probably won't be the typical shot (that's exactly what I was going for... getting people to look twice & try to figure out what the heck it is).
Hope it does okay :O)

I look forward to seeing the making of this image. It seems familiar like something that was turned upside down in a previous challenge. Then again, maybe not. The various shades of blue are always nice and seem to work well in challenges.
