Call these "Anti-Rules"
This is a challenge for all those who think outside the box.
As with all challenges in this series, the more unconventional the subject, composition, and/or technique, the better.
There will be certain allowances for "shock value" but truly tasteless photos-IE human corpses, pornography/excessive nudity, excrement/urine etc. will be disqualified. Photos don't have to be offensive to be original.
If your photo is "too ordinary" I will disqualify it.

Puddles the Water Sprite

by CharlesB58

Sample image to give people an idea what this challenge is about. It's about using your imagination and skills to embodie the idea of a magical being which is made of water or inhabits a body of water. Scenic or Landscape style photos which simply show water, without giving some sense of animate life involved, will be disqualified. Previous challenges in this "Elementals" mini series have had photos which were disqualified because they had little to do with the theme other than the word "Fire"
