Ruth Vilmi
This is fantastic, Paul. You deserve to win the competition:
) I thought it was a painting before reading your profile! Can you explain a little about how you make the photo so special please? Was some of the foam on your lens? I’m really impressed with your work:) RuthPaul Manning replied
thanks so much – I have a water housing for my camera, there is always a thin layer of water over the front glass and this at times tends to ‘bend’ the light and you get that effect in the foreground! I also spend countless hours in the water and try and capture a little of its magic in my images! Really appreciate you comment, cheers and have a great 2009, cheers Paul
Wendi Donaldson
