Well now, thks a bunch. I've had to go back through my saves, find that photo and carefeully transport it to the bayou out behind my house.. I can't go swimming in my pond anymore and am not sure I want to even get in the bath tub. I'll tell you one thing, this is very well done, and very realistic. I'm outa here........

Looks like the 'creature' from the Black Lagoon of Maven's swamp!...or one of Pat's escapee's!...however...it's astunning manipulation and well done for your ingenuity.....
it's like ....man, i'm staying away from the water. suppose something like that is really there. good idea......good execution. that guy is looking right at ME! jen
LOL Tracy!! Now that's a scary manip. I wasn't thinking about gators gettin me when I took this shot, but that afternoon a thunderstorm came through and I had to cancel my snorkeling trip out to the reefs. Instead, I went kayaking through the mangroves in the rain with thunder rumbling off in the distance. I was by myself paddling through channels between small islands covered in mangroves. The water was dark and murky and I wasn't to far from a crocodile sanctuary. So yeah, I can relate to this!!!!
Chip
ps: I had a waterproof throw away camera with me and I'll post something if any of the shots came out!
Looks like the beginning of a great screenplay Tracy.Now all you have to do is find a great theme song like Jaws and you've got a smash hit on your hands.How about "Crocks on a Plane" lol.Nice manipulation.It is a seemless fit to Chips great image.
Peace&Respect Jojo
I can't afford a camera. The only camera I have now is a 1.3 megapixel cell phone camera which really sucks. When I finally am able to buy a proper camera, look out cuz Caedes, here I come!! For now though, I'll just learn from the gurus here *blush*
Excellent work Tracy......frightening as it might be, one can still see the talent it takes to create an image such as this and turn Chip's peaceful dreamy sunrise into a nightmare for those of us who are afraid of "things" lurking in the water...lol
Job well done my friend. Thank you for sharing this with us :~)
Thans for your comments, all! I can't answer each message separately like I used to -- simply too many folks now. But thank you -- and Mimi, be sure to look beneath your bed tonight.....
