The first one is lovely, well done. Er, can we look forward to our first turtle member or are you going to be its proxy? Nice shot turtles buddy (a name, do we have a name?).  Very Happy

The turtles buddy was useless at pushing the shutter button properly!  Rolling Eyes

You'd think spending a lifetime gently flapping their appendages up and down they'd have cracked it by now. There's no accounting for it.

Did I miss some subtle humour here, or is that really a blend? If it is, damn it's good.

No, you never missed any attempt at humour (other than the bit about the turtle pushing the button!).  Its a blend of two shots, both of which taken pretty close together, and with me in one, and Melissa in the other.  We just dived down, took one shot, went up for breath, and to hand the camera over, and then dived again to get the other shot......

Very Happy

Very nicely done too. Just to be the pedant, were you added to the first image of Melissa? There is a slightly lighter area on the far right on the outside of your forearm and leg. That's the only hint I can see that this could be a composite.

its a nice shot, and a great way of getting tow togetherin a image, when no one else around to hold the camera.

I wouldn't have guessed at the composite on first look, but now I know there is a noticeable halo - left leg.

yep I was added to the shot of the Turt and Melissa.  I was also shrunk slightly, as i was a lot closer to camera than she was......  Rolling Eyes
