I think it's my best photo yet. Starting to use some imagination.

The greenery in and around your pond is so lush and healthy. I like

Happy Father's Day!

That is a beautiful shot, fish swimming, lily and lotus towering above all. Turtles have a great view.

PS Great picture of you and your kids in the other posting.

That is a gorgeous shot. My favorite kind- almost eye level with the water.

Lotus leaves are amazing.

I have never had this kind of success with lotus, only ok at best. More ariel leaves are popping up, can a blossom be far behind?
I loaded a big and cheap tea infuser with osmocoat. I can't imagine the tea infuser making all that difference.
*look real close at the base of the second arial leaf, That is a skull! I wondered where the gardner went??

Nice shot!!!

Looks like a jungle at that view point.

Nice shot Jerry.

That's my favorite video angle, up close and personal.

You could frame that one or submit it.

That's a great shot, Jerry!

It looks very lush!

OK, you've mentioned the skull before. Tell us about your skull, Jerry.

Jerry · « **Reply #15 on:** June 18, 2007, 12:50:11 PM »

When my son was little, he bought the skull on a trip to Hawaii. He named it George Dumbskull! No idea why.
The baggage guy asked "Whats this i feel?" Larry piped up with "it's a skull!"
Today we would be detaind for 6 hours

Esther, almost, I just held the camera an inch above the water.
I think Johns placed his camera in an empty aquarium and shot below the surface. I will try that next, but i have to go to NC to borrow Johns tank!

Great idea about Johns tank shots...maybe we can go halvsies to NC

Sandye · « **Reply #17 on:** June 18, 2007, 09:29:20 PM »

So it is a human skull?

I think you might be detained more than 6 hours at an airport now. I'm not sure it's even possible/legal to buy a human skull nowadays.

Jerry · « **Reply #18 on:** June 18, 2007, 09:55:59 PM »

it's a fake human skull! A replica.

Nice shot!

Sandye · « **Reply #20 on:** June 19, 2007, 09:22:36 PM »

AH!! That makes more sense.

Yep, you're right, it would probably take the airport people at least six hours to determine that the skull wasn't real.
