RagTagChallenge-Mermaid

~~~~~

mermaid

a mythical sea creature with the head and trunk of

a woman and the tail of a fish, conventionally depicted

as beautiful and with long flowing golden hair.

~~~~~

Initially, I thought that this swimmer looked a little

like a mermaid struggling in the wild surf of the day.

Zooming in, however, it appears that again I was incorrect…

 

…as I was when I first viewed this statue

of a girl in a wetsuit from

Vancouver’s,

Stanley Park.

I’m not a fan of phone or iPad cameras,

in crowded areas, I’m afraid.

Although my images were taken in

Vancouver’s Stanley Park, (Canada)

and on

Melbourne’s St Kilda Pier (Australia)

…they both have something in common.

In both photos, someone did remember

to bring the camera.  😄😄

just for fun

simply to have fun

I took these images in Vancouver’s Stanley Park.

For fun, I extracted the landed girl (second image)

and imported her into the first, as above.

 

 

Last year some bloggers were

making swirls on their posts.

I also had a go with the

resulting image above.
