Here's a couple more shots from my snorkeling series :). Again both taken during our stay at Monkey Mia on Australia's west coast and using a Canon Ixus 750 in a water-proof housing.

As fantastic as the previous post. #1 is very cartoonish with the illusion of a giant pelican trying to chase a small boat.:D

On that first one, if you were just a couple inches lower (closer to the surface of the water) so the pelican and the boat were both on the horizon line, the illustion would have been perfect!!!

Your wish sir is my.....

I linked the previous pics straight from my gallery where all my images are only 500 in width for various reasons.

Thanks for the hint :)
