This is a 12MP Kodak broken POS P&S that will not save a picture even in the rare instance that it stays on long enough to get your finger from the power button to the shutter release. Figured it would come in handy as a paperweight at best, but I think this is a much better fate for it! Hope this does well, and I know many of you can relate. :)

Great Shot!!! I've had that happen to me once before but it was not as cool as this picture. :) Congrats on Winning 1st place. mabye next time you cant set fire to a film camera.
Guess you wasted a ten thinking this was Irene's shot. Before long, so many people will be doing water shots, no one will know who's is who's and level the playing field. What a rip.
i've dropped two cellphones in the water, but not the camera yet; have had a few close calls wherein i would have, if necessary, broken a hip in order to catch it before it fell over into the river; congrats on a very well deserved win!!
Congrats on your ribbon! Very nicely executed and well deserved.
Fortunately, I haven't had this happen...yet. But everytime I lean over a body of water to capture an image the thought does enter my mind (not into camera staps).
So did you point your camera and shoot this P&S?
We all point and shoot, it's what goes on in our heads and all the preparation before and processing after that counts.
hahah this is amazing it fits the concept of the challenge perfectly. Well exposed, i love how crisp and clear it is. Good job you definitely deserve the ribbon for this one.
I actually shot this same image for this challenge but wasn't happy with the execution so went with something else. So I am very happy to see this shot take first place. Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
This is a great shot!! I love how you've captured the air escaping from the camera as well as the splash at the top of the frame. Good luck with this one :)
