Radial Blur
I took the photo of some pebbles and water and converted to black and white in photo-shop, used the curves to increase contrast and then added a radial blur - the blur filter almost adds a motion to the stones and if i look at it too long the perceived motion in the picture makes me feel as though i am falling into it!
