I was playing with my camera settings, comparing photos, and ended up with these fun mind benders. Taken from the rail of a cruise ship somewhere along the coast of Brazil.

These were shot with my Canon SX700 P&S travel camera. I believe the setting is called "Creative" which I seldom use, but it does give you some fun perspectives.

I've never had motion sickness and these photos actually gave me a little "odd" feeling. That means you succeeded with your fun manipulation!

That's pretty amazing Flyerace. I had no idea these would affect some people like that. Are you bothered by air sickness as well? Wondering by your avatar. Thanks for looking.

Hi Jim - The shots are very creative. Well done PP. My biggest takeaway is that #1 can be used as an excellent visual aid in showing someone just what happens to initiate a Tsunami. The seafloor quake / slippage (one tectonic plate over its' neighboring plate) does cause a "swell" at the surface very much like that seen in your PP shot. The "swell" would be, of course, no where near the height of yours although the principal remains the same. I have been looking for just such a visual for instruction purposes for a very long time and have now got one thanks to UHH and yourself.

All the best to you and yours,

Terry
