This weeks 52 week project. I will start by quoting what I wrote on Flickr.

Ha! This weeks self portrait is done with 5 days to spare!

Today was my first swim of the summer. I have had a bit of a nasty chest infection that has kept me out of the water up until now. The water is beautiful, if a bit rough today.

Here I am napping under a wave.

It is a great little camera.

Now, for those wondering how I did it, there really is no trick at all. The little camera has a very wide field of view, and as such, makes anything that is close, look like it is far away. The camera was at arms length in this shot.

Dive right in.

If you haven’t bookmarked the Boston Globe’s Big Picture web site yet, you really should do yourself a favour. Time after time they produce the goods.

In the latest batch of photos, we have people diving into water. Sounds a bit dull, but wait until you see the photos. From cliffs in Dubrovnik, to spring boards in Rome. Ruins in Baghdad, to the coolish waters of the Australian Antarctic.

This is going to sting.
