A piece of welders glass was taped to the front of lens to give a 30 sec. exposure. I wore a black shirt and slowly moved my upper body while holding my arm (stuck through a gourd skeleton) as still as possible. Laying on a greenhouse floor in a puddle of water. The cross was just serendipity.

Oh drat. Didn't vote nor look because I've never been able to make it through a Tim Burton anything. But I just spotted this through the side window, when I didn't know the context, and it's just super-duper. I'd not knowingly pay to see the first few minutes of another Tim Burton movie, but I'd certainly have paid good money to watch you take this picture, prone and wet body slowly writhing around a stilled arm. That's entertainment!
This is my favourite image of the challenge. First of all, thank you for introducing me to a poem I had never heard before and was quite moving. Your image really captures for me the essence of the poem. But without even knowing the inspiration for your entry I find the image fascinating and beautiful.
