April Contest Water shots not submitted.

I really went back and forth between the shot I entered, "Undersea", and this one, "Sea and Sky".

This is probably one of the first contests where I really would have loved the chance to enter two photos.

How about sharing the ones not entered here? I didn't want to clog up the comments thread, but thought it would be fun
to see everyone's "other" choice. There are so many different ways to show water.

I took this at Emerald Isle (NC) when we were at the beach last fall.

Sea and Sky

I can see why there was such a quandary over the decision between this one and your exciting entry.
I will contribute to this ASAP -- I want to look over the photos of two events I remember that have lots to do with active water.

I really like the "I did not chose this one....posts

Now I must look at your wonderful photograph again. The water looks both transparent and solid at the same time.

but I don't have anything else. Of all the water shots, the ones I was looking for are all lost in space on that broken hard drive that I cannot afford to have opened up. Thousands of photos gone.
It does though make me have to go and take the photos for the contest, rather than search for one that fits the theme at hand.
The plants in my shower stall, my entry, are my only attempt at a brand new water shot, just took it a few days ago.
