Underwater Houses pictures -
Australian Geographic magazine sponsored an unusual project - the construction of an underwater house where aquanauts may stay for weeks without leaving. The first underwater mission was successfully completed by a trained aquanaut and lasted for 13 days. The 8 by 10 foot under-sea home is constructed from the metal parts and maintains healthy air pressure and oxygen levels to recreate living conditions in the atmosphere. The special chambers supply oxygen to the room, and filter out the carbon dioxide produced from breathing. Last but not least, this sea house has a supply of food in the fridge and is equipped with a bathroom.
Photoshop underwater houses one way or another. Show how humans would live underwater, but your entry must include the underwater house somewhere in it. What housing construction elements will be needed to maintain a good life style underwater? We will also accept partially submerged houses in this contest.
Underwater Dancing pictures -
[ On Friday seventy-four scuba divers danced simultaneously underwater at Sydney's Olympic Park Aquatic Centre and set the new world record for the largest underwater dance class. ]
If 74 scuba divers simultaneously jerking underwater is called "dancing", you might as well call simultaneous screaming of 74 monkeys "an opera performance", and call it "a record". On the other hand I think I might just have discovered what caused Tsunami waves this morning.
In this contest you are asked to photoshop people dancing underwater. Any dance styles and dance outfits are good enough as long as they are SFW (safe for work) and are underwater.
Animal Watercrafts? pictures -
[ "A new aquatic vehicle, "bionic dolphin", that can take passengers
beneath the surface of the water, revolve 360 degrees and stand
upright like a dolphin, may be released as early as next year. The
dolphin-resembling watercraft can travel 300 miles without refueling,
and has a range of applications as entertainment aquatic
vehicle, rescue watercraft, and aquatic taxi." ]
I love the dolphin vehicle concept, but servicing it may be a bitch,
especially if it breaks down in the middle of the ocean:
- Hello, watercraft service? Yeah, we are at 1° 19.554' S 109° 30.190' W
Pacific Ocean. We have an emergency - we have a flat flipper and are out of spares. Plus, tail is leaking some stinky stuff which attracts sharks. It
looks like we got lost in the wrong neighborhood.
- Stay put. We'll be there within 3 days.
In this contest you are asked to photoshop above-water watercrafts or
underwater watercrafts, which look like any aquatic animal. Your
entries should look like aquatic vehicles rather than aquatic
robots.
Underwater Animal pictures - Save scientists time and show them what any aquatic anderwater animal will look like after being exposed to pharmaceuticals.

Underwater Breakdance pictures - Let's Play And Dance. Full View Please. / This is nice work. The only thing I'd change is maybe adding a little more shadow on the smaller dolphin. I think the dancer would cast more of a shadow on that dolphin. Hope this helps. / I think his left hand should be into the sand. I've tried this manuever underwater, and distinctly remember my hand sinking about 1/2 to 1 inch into the sandy bottom. This was in Hawaii, so perhaps this is the Atlantic Ocean where there is a more dense sandy bottom. Perhaps Sponge Bob knows the real answer to this question. / Nah, he's weightless and that's firm coral sand. Nice work. / I find this very realistic and superb work. The guy does look underwater, and bubble splashes add more realism to it. Oh, and dolphins seem to be enjoing it as much as I do / This is so good....glad there's not a stingray close. / This one it´s a very fine composition. Congratulationsˇ
Waterfall Barn Revised pictures - Location, location, location Thanks for the suggestions. The changes helped a lot. / I would darken the source picture just a touch, or increase the brightness of the barn just a touch to match them up. Other than that, this is a great blend. / i agree with mid comment. this is good job. / Great job. The Chew Tobacco sign needs desaturation to blend better / Why is there still snow on the barn roof. / I left the snow on purpose, because (in my opinion) it doesn't look like snow in this context, but rather a reflective metal roof. I tested it on people who hadn't seen the source image---and nobody saw it as snow. / ... This looks terrific... Excellent job. / I see you increased the saturation of the picture, which makes it look a bit less natural (even though still impressive), in my opinion. / Congrats LunaC. Great job all round.. and the roof is fine.. honest. (I had the same prob) / Congratulations, I do like the image a lot better post edit. I also agree that the roof looks fine in this context. Great job.
