Irene Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 Having been a member for almost 2 months, I feel I'm getting to know people a little better. I thought it was time to be a little more revealing...Here is one of my favourite holiday photos (taken in Portugal - Islha de Taviria) What did you think I meant!! :0 Must do something to take my mind off this miserable cold, damp weather. What better than looking at holiday photos?OK, now you show me yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thos Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 One of my fav. photos.Incidentally, for the benefit of Irene and other newcomers, we used to have a photo competition. The prize was to select the topic fpr the next competition. After my success I chose "The Police" as a subject, thinking that holiday photos of national police or police people relaxing would be easily available and interesting. However, just as I announced the subject, the incident with the innocent Brazilian on the London Underground system happened and no-one wanted to go within a mile of a policeman (or woman).This was going to be my entry. (from Belgium).Thos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B) I tried to upload another which was taken during my cruise last year. For some reason, even though I had PixResized it, it was too large. I'll try again as a single attachment. In the centre of the picture, which was taken at sea, an aquatic fish/animal leapt out of the sea right in the centre of my lens. I would love others to try to identify what it was.... see my next post!! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irene Posted January 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 I tried to add this earlier, but the website parameters wouldn't allow me.This photo is also on the Gallery. If you can zoom in to the centre of the picture, there is a creature leaping out of the water, captured as my shutter opened. Can anyone see what it is??

andsome Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 This has to be one of my favourite photo's. NOT good technically, but had to be taken quickly at that moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone see what it is??I couldn't identify it. Did you specifically take a picture of it or did you first spot it when you saw the picture you had taken.I took this on our Alaskan cruise last year. I like the extinct volcano in the background.I also got friendly with this inhabitant.Thos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irene Posted January 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 I couldn't identify it. Did you specifically take a picture of it or did you first spot it when you saw the picture you had taken.I had no idea it was there until I downloaded the photographs when we got home. I have tried zoom in on it and it is definitely something which leapt out of the water at that very second when I pressed the shutter. There appears to be a fin at the bottom, just above the waterline. I suspect it was just a large fish putting on a show for the Cruisers!! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
