Make Your Photo Look Like It's Under Water

Challenge #5 in the The Power of Editing series. Hosted by sagebrushfire.

Challenge has finished

This challenge will really put your creative muscles to work. Take a picture of a NON-UNDERWATER SCENE and make it look like it was under water. You can layer actual underwater scenes, you can play with distortion, burring or color, anything you need to give us the appearance of being underwater. Extra cool points if you find a way to use a 3D program for this (they have free trials, watermarks are okay!)

Post-Processing is required. You may not simply take a photo underwater; you may, however, incorporate such photos as part of your effect.

Capture date rules:

No restrictions.

Additional rules:

Anything goes with editing, any medium is allowed.
Watermarks from trial software are allowed if they don't completely obscure the image.
Personal watermarks and signatures are discouraged, but are allowed.
Each image must have an actual Title or Description so that I know you read these rules. I will disqualify offending images without prejudice - you may resubmit after reading the rules.
