Sailing Tannies DUW

Postby Fatal_S » Mon Oct 22, 2007 12:54 pm

Well I found a little toy sailboat in my basement, and it was a good size for my little tannies, so they got a photo shoot!

Trikks wasn't too enthused, and often went overboard, but he did manage some cute pictures:
Sailing the...green sea?
Image
To jump or not to jump?
Image
Profile Shot!
Image
Is this how you work it?
Image
I can steer with my feet!
Image
Ugh, I don't feel so good...
Image

Wocket was much more at home on the waves, and took to sailing like a pro:
Pre-Sail Inpection.
Image
Looks good!
Image
We're on the way!
Image
Now set the AutoCaptain...
Image
...And take a break.
Image
Back to work!
Image
Did I see something?
Image
Land Ho!
Image
Another long day on the sea.

:rofl: You can just about see the fair winds ruffling their scales! Yarrr!!!!
You almost believe the grass is fluid, it looks like they're running their arms through it in some shots.

Great :clap:

Thanks! These are my favorite skink pictures so far ^.^ I should send these pictures to sailing camp with my sea-cadet sister. Wocket on the sail was more of an accident, I'd grabbed him and lifted and he just caught the pole. I went with it, made sure he was hanging on, and snapped the picture. Oh, and the grass may look somewhat-liquid, but that didn't stop them from attempting to jump overboard several times. Oh, and this didn't work nearly as well in actual water...

Zach, I assure you, this is 100% bona-fide skinkness ^.^ Wonder if I could photoshop these and put them with an ocean background...hmm... "Land Ho!" could turn into a sinking picture :D "Aww darnit"
