A great shot for this contest. The technique is straight forward enough but I never realized how much the refraction of the water effected the size of the underwater image. An eye catching shot that should fare well in the voting.

Interesting experimental image. Nice clear portrait of above the waist and below the ankles. Looks refreshing and relaxing reading in the water. Good lighting. Well done.
