Collectivelycreative: suggestions for bizzaro photo I need to take, please?

[elehhhhna]

My great great grand opened a successful auction house in Holland. They have a cool facebook page where among other things they post pics of customers, friends, family holding the bag- a red drawsting w/ their logo. Maybe 10x15&quot , all over the world.

I'm getting a bag and going to Mexico (Isla Mujeres) for a beach vaca in a few weeks.

I need a cooooool pic. The water is crystalclear and there is much marine life. I snorkel. Ideas?

1. I don't have any bizarro ideas

But you could consider just setting up a nice scene--you with the bag at a table or lounge chair or similar, with sand, sky, and water in the background. This shot would lend itself to a shallow depth of field if you have the lens for it. You and the bag would be in sharp focus, and the sand, sky, and water (along with some colorful background element like a beach ball or umbrella?) would be somewhat- to very-out of focus. Something to consider.

Have a great trip.

2. In Hawaii, I used to snorkel at Hanauma Bay

and I'd carry a little bag of frozen peas to feed to the fish, which would eat from your hand.

Swap the little frozen veggies bag for the bag with the logo, meet a wicked fish, get a friend to snap the photo, and...?
