The summer is ending

The summer is ending... school has started, the fire flies are gone and the air tonight just smells like fall. Its cool and refreshing after the hot weather but something inside me feels sad that those summer nights will be gone, replaced with bitterly cold wind and snow ugh... that isn't here yet though there’s at least one more month to enjoy the great lakes splendor he he...Me under water hmm... I took these photos a few weeks ago but never put them up... until now!!
Shallow water at the Barton lake boat launch, I liked the ripples in the sand. Below, me blowing out an air bubble he he...
How to water proof your camera: 1. Take a gallon sized zip lock baggy 2. Insert camera 3. Seal the bag with air trapped inside so if you let go it floats! (This is probably the most important step) 4. Place under water and snap away!! When taking a photo hold the bag tight against the lens otherwise the photo will be blurry, it gets a little blurry anyway but hey… Also I don't recommend doing this and accept no responsibility if you drown your camera!! I try and keep the camera as shallow as possible in the water preferably not letting the zipper on the bag even go under... Bingo!! your very own underwater camera!! Enjoy!!
