"there is a girl who haunts that lighthouse
she saved me, i was swimming
so young i almost drowned
under the water she sang a story
of losing her lover
she calls a warning
her lover was a sailor
she went and she waited there
the door locked from the outside
lover never arrived so she sings there
soft as a siren luring the ships off their course, how alarming
we went in, we climbed up and looked out
the door locked from the outside
three ghosts in a lighthouse"

these self portraits involving h2o sure are tricky. yet i keep goin' back to em. maybe i should get a life... :) nahhhhh!
anyways... just had the camera on the tripod with the self timer and went in and out of the pool a bajillion times to pull the trigger. :) the lighting is from the underwater built in pool light.
Excellent! So where was the camera? On the roof? Like I said before, there's nothing like living in southern California! Which reminds me...on New Year's Eve, after the countdown, I turned around and there were a bunch of party-goers jumping into my pool. ;-)
Definitely would like to know how you did this. And I'm still bitter about your weather! And you go and rub it in by going swimming? Nice! It's still -30 or so here. But at least it's sunny.
Sweet! How did you shoot it, did you have a friend clicking the shutter? Only In San Diego would someone be swimming in the dead of winter! I like the the middle the best.
