sometimes we just need to hold on...

inspired by the Hockneyizer toy in fd's Flickr toys
a shot of my dripping tap in the kitchen :)

cut out 4 parts of the original photo
resize the canvas to get the polaroid frame
played around with the arrangements for final image :)

i also posted the original uncut version in workshop

for PP :
i used virtual photographer for the b/w convertion
added contrast
added noise in PS
vigenette filter and burn tool

We are almost neighbors today Koh! Nice BW effect here, I am STILL trying to learn how to combine more than one pic together! Nice catch on the crop! This isn't easy to do!

This is great, Koh - you're on top form with this image, both in the original execution and in the pp work.

The b/w and addition of noise are wonderful touches - excellent stuff and I wish I had your imagination and knowledge!

I kept looking at the thumbnail without reading the title and figured it was another one of your camera shots. You've fooled me. :)

Very beautiful composition. Light, sharp, colours and framing are perfect.
Best wishes
