Pour water through something which will disperse it as a shower would in several separate streams. Take a picture as you're pouring the water. Just make sure that the water has someplace to go which won't make a mess.

Theoretically, it should give you a rather realistic water effect.

And if you have some great effects program, perhaps add a bit of steam, but it would be perfectly alright without that.

You could use rain effect and squash it so it only covers the area where the shower outputs to

Re: making a shower effect

For a hand-animated film of mine, I animated rain using MacroMedia MX.  I drew a rain drop, made it move across the screen with a motion tween, then cloned the virtual cell (layer) and placed them at different spots.  I changed the aplha setting, making the raindrops see-through.  If you have Macromedia flash, you can animate a shower the same way, except that you need a lot more layers, and they all move from the same area of origin.
