DIVING OFF THE BRIDGE

Lake Hawkins, TX

Some "Bubbas"(that's what we call them) were jumping and diving off the bridge when I was headed to my sister's house. I think they had a bit to drink. Hope nobody got hurt.

They are called "Tombstoners" over here....yes, hope he was OK. Good shot, though.

Hope the water is deep

GREAT catch ~smile~

Nice stop action but that is such risky behavior.
Wei O'Connell03-Jul-2011 04:17
Perfect timing. Hope the water is deep enough :-)

Great action shot .
Did you get time to switch to multi exposure ?
The angle hes in does not look aerodynamic maybe a painful belly flop.
Ed Preston02-Jul-2011 20:36
Was there any water left in the river? Great capture Cindi!

You should photoshop a cape for him!! LOL Great catch!
Margot W02-Jul-2011 15:33
Another amazing shot Cindi.
Let's hope he goes head first or he may not want to try that again.
Doug Cruden02-Jul-2011 15:25
Blimey, I hope there's plenty of water in that lake LOL!!!!

That's a big bubba. Great timing to get him in midair. Not exactly graceful, but very cool nonetheless. :)

that takes some daring from such a height...but good fun on a hot day..
Tom Briggs02-Jul-2011 13:15
Bubba's gonna make a big splash with that form ... nice catch, Cindi.

Oh my goodness, I don't see anything good coming out of this! Great catch Cindi!

What a belly flop!
Guest 02-Jul-2011 12:16
That's going to make a splash.... :)
Stephanie02-Jul-2011 10:43
That's what I call 'em too! Does this guy know that there's only 6" of water down there? ;)
