Thank you Taffeta.   Snapdragon, I love yours. Cutesarus looks perfect in that floatie.

Hee hee thank you!! I got it at Target! I saw the 'drink coaster floaties' and I was like :O THIS IS MY WATER ENTRY!! Now the ponies can go floating for the summer!

Awesome picture Snapdragon.  I was going to buy one of those drink floatie things too (haha)  Glad I didn't because I don't think Cool Breeze would have pulled it off as well as Cutesaurus.

love your setting Minty_Magic.  I am happy to hear no ponies fell into the creek 

Thank you!

Snapdragon, omg your picture is too cute! I totally thought about buying one of those floaties too but couldn't bring myself to spend the extra money. Cutesaurus looks like she was made for it! I love her little drink too, so fun!

lostpony, I'm loving all the seaponies! It took me a minute to notice the real fishies back there too, but they really add to the underwater feel, I love it!

[lostpony]

Thanks, Minty_Magic!  I love your natural setting.  I didn't have time to hike out to a creek and get the setup I wanted so I went with the aquarium instead.

I took hundreds of shots trying to get the fish to cooperate and they just wouldn't.  They either hid in the corners or streaked by too fast and were blurs.  So I had to settle for the least blurry image that had fish in it, which is mostly just showing fins.  I think all the seaponies got them excited or something.

Right after I packed it all up, they were chilling right there where I had wanted them, looking at me like, "What?"

Everyone's pictures are looking so good!

[jrr74]

very impressive shot lostpony.  How did you get the sea ponies in their pose?  Are they submerged in the tank?  As for the fish, I find that freshwater angelfish can be pretty cooperative for photoshoots.  They love attention 


It looks like we are still waiting on 4 more contestants to get their photos up.  Can not wait to see them all 

[lostpony]

Thanks so much jrr74!

I'm so tickled that you aren't sure if the seaponies are inside the tank....my illusion succeeded!  They are stuck on the outside with double-sided tape.  I had to take out the weights to keep them from falling off too fast. 

My Comets have never been uncooperative before!  They are always at the front looking out, but I've never taped seaponies on their glass either...

I like your magical pool too, and poetry!  I'm going with the lowest word count possible so my wordsmith skills don't ruin Masquerade's chances.

[The_Loner]

I love all these photos!

Minty_Magic: I'm sure Seascape and Seaspray had fun at the creek!

Snapdragon: That floatie is awesome!

lostpony: great setup with those seaponies looking they like are swimming with the fishies ...... uhm, you know in the good way

I will be taking my photos today when I can get the time between watching the Le Mans race and caring for my ill guinea pig.

[lostpony]

Thanks so much The_Loner!

I hope your furry friend recovers and stays off the Le Mans track and that your picture goes well.


Snapdragon, I too like your dinosaur floatation device.  It's a perfect fit! and an unfair advantage, where is the referee.

[Shaiyeh]

lostpony: I love your shot, the fishies add such a nice effect when swimming around like that (you said they were uncooperative, but I think it makes the picture look magical x) also: seaponies, yaaay!)


Here's mine!
Petite Petunia and Aloha Pearl took a hike today to one of the nearby lakes. Sadly, we didn't get to capture the baby tiny pike who curiously swam up to us (it was sooo adorable!). Maybe next time!

ETA: and by capture, I mean on camera of course. Would never bring a pike home x) tho it would be amazing with  a ginormous tank with a huge pike in it o: )

[lostpony]

Thanks so much Shaiyeh! 

your shot looks great too, even if your fish were harder to capture than mine (mine being in a barrel)!  All that nice big nature goes so well with ponies.

On this perfect summer day Hula Hula and two of her kids had fun splashing, floating, playing and chillin' in the pool


Shaiyeh: that's a lovely shot and I like the hair on those ponies

[lostpony]

The_Loner, no one can ever match your arsenal of pony accessories!

(I like that little fish! great subtle touch!)

[jrr74]

Love the family picture The_Loner.  I see you have the coveted sunglasses.  Did Hula Hula fall in?  I was just noticing her hair

[Crowning_Glory13]
