She was in a pool so I was wet for this one. Using a housing for my canon G11.


Thanks for this info. I've been too scared to use a housing for the usual reasons. I know I will do something wrong and end up with an expensive door stop. However, to get shots anywhere near as good as this maybe worth the risk and expense.

Fabulous... I've been looking at this quite a lot during voting. What I like the most about this is the downward movement of the body and the tension of the anticipated kick. We might be helpless, but we try to survive. A beautiful image, beyond votes and scores.

Love this for the color and mood ... I don't see horror, probably not even helplessness. I see beauty of form in suspension. She is so lucky to have this image. Gorgeous capture.
