nice!

creative.. good job

The tap needs a shadow too. The source you linked to is from a blog, and not usable. This one is: http://www.sxc.hu/photo/814397

I put shadow but,it is very little part of the shadow,behind the tree!
I did't know for that pic,can you exp me,why!

Idea is very interesting. But consider that when water reaches a dry soil, what color is the soil when wet? Dark brown or dark red (it depends on the type of the soil).

The shadow cast of the tap must have the same color as the shadow cast of the tree.The easiest way to do this is clone stamp inside the shadow selection with source on the tree selection.

cool idea author...add some texture on tape line and also u could curve-it a bit...if u use CS5 puppet warp is perfect for that...best of luck

Thx!
I should add texture....but..;!)

I don't use CS5,use CS4! Do you have link for CS5 ?!!

Link for CS5? Lol, you mean like pirate ?
In CS4 you can use normal warp just make different selections on that layer and repair them after with clone stamp.
CS5 has some cool features but will eat your memory like popcorn on a movie.

LMAO
link for cs5.
wow. if it were only that easy.
i'm running old cs2 and i can even get a half way reasonable "warp" to things to make them appear more realistic.

....wrong understand...warp...OK....regardless of which referred photoshop....i need cs5,ok!

I'm just using Ps3 and it comes with the warp feature. It's just another extra in free transform but a lot of that you could do with liquefy too.

You could use Ctrl T Warp to make that text following the shapes . It will be harder but with more impact.

...good suggestion but I have not thought about it....;:!"
