[Off Nick and Eddie's reactions to the dinosaurs] Oh yeah "Ooh, aah", that's how it always starts. But then there's running and screaming.



{about the T-Rex) When he sees us with his kid isn't he gonna be like "you"!?

Nice work! The images of the lurking plesiosaur are very atmospheric.

That jumping ichthyosaurus how you made that...

Glad you should ask ARUL :). It was pretty basic, I positioned the lens just above water level in the lake and angled it up, avoiding any land or trees in the shot.
Then I locked the focus and took the picture just as I moved the Ichthyosaurus from beneath to the water surface to get a nice splash. Hope that helps, sorry for wierd english :)

Such nice pictures! Great locations also, I love the effect of scale in Youngster In Trouble.  ^-^ Jumping Ichthyosaur is one of my favourites, too.

Thanks for the compliments Battatitan :)! So far all of the shots has been taken in Sweden.

Thanks ARUL :)! Yes it is tricky to get the focus right, I took about 50 shots before I was happy with it  :))

Amazing! You have great skills in photography and how to capture point of views from environments.

Aside from the shots being very beautiful themselves, I do envy the fact that you still have that kind of environment near your residence.

I love the sense of scale you've managed to achieve with that last set, but I have to say the underwater ones are my favourites of any of yours so far, especially the Ichthyosaur. I'm jealous of your underwater camera!  ;)
