Someplace Green With Red Water *

Because I liked Gerald's Green Tree Python so much, I thought I'd try a patch of green. This is the Amazon, just outside of Belem`, the large port city at the mouth of the River. Yes the water is red, (due to the run off of tannic acid from decomposing foliage), but it is also carbonated and walking it is like walking in a giant ginger ale...with huge bubbles tickling and crawling up you legs.

Each of these three images were re-cuts, run through PS again to see if there would be an improvement on the original. Each was choosen with this specifically in mind. I presume that we all hate to go backwards, but this was an interesting test for myself, (but also somewhat limited in that a better 3 second shot had to be discarded...'tis the rules of life...lol)
