    Best photo Mongo has seen all week !! Really different. Sorry about the phone though unless it is one of those fancy new waterproof ones.

    Maybe "EE! DAM!" variety. Lake? OK, large dam.

    Come on, Zook. What happened?

    CC, Image editing OK.

    Great pic. If the phone lives, maybe send it to your phone company and offer to sell them the image "Dam near works anywhere". If it doesn't then a slogan "Good to the last shot" may be needed!

    Just thought about it, Zook. Next time, put it into video recording mode and maybe make a series like
    "Voyage to the Bottom of the Lake?"

    Meanwhile, enjoy this old one. I guess you'd remember it

    Now that I've strung you along, I should point out that it was deliberate. The lake there is about 5cm deep, and the phone is in an 'InDepth' case, so it's fully waterproof to 2m or something like that.
    My hand was trying to make some bubbles on the surface, but it looked like I was making a lunge to save the phone, so I decided to put it up as if a disaster had occured.

    Reckon that's all I'd have said before your admission also.
