One more torpedo jumping out of the water photo

12 years 5 months ago - 12 years 5 months ago #173395 by Alex
This shot was taken with D700 with 105mm and SB900 & SB800 (TTL) with Pocket Wizard TT1 & TT5
ISO 200 | f/22 | 1/1250 sec shutter

Messed around with photo in Photoshop CS5




OK... so it's not the torpedo many of you were thinking. This torpedo isn't full things that go BOOM! So if you have gone fishing before, you might have heard or used a lure called a "Torpedo". I was in the garage for something yesterday... saw my old fish tank... saw my fishing gear.... and the gears started turning.

Really cool image Alex ... I'm going to have to try this myself. Piracy .... a form of flattery!

The eyeballs on the lure looking at its reflection gives this one a lot of comedic quality. Great job.
