And for my next trick... by graemestevens

And for my next trick...

The first time that Jesus attempted walking on water he met with abject failure. Even water does not enjoy being treated like a doormat.
"Behold my awesome power and might" Jesus did say as he trod upon the oceans, at which the waters did rise up and say unto him "Bugger off you pompous git, do I look like I need you walking all over me" and did smite him in his face.

In other news, someone that I 'know quite well' tried another fire shot today and burned his hand. Ouch. He has a hurty :(
Awesome splash! Love the water droplets! Super colour too! FAV.

Great shot... looks like he is expelling a lot of water out of his mouth...

That water is gorgeous. I have to get out of this crappy gray winter.... awesome shot
February 17th, 2015  
@melston Thanks very much - I guess our turn for winter will come all too soon!
February 17th, 2015  
Wonderful capture - The colours are so rich. Life looks tough down there.
February 17th, 2015  
fav. fantastic image. I hope the burn isn't too bad.
February 17th, 2015  
@bill_fe Thanks very much - nothing some alcohol won't fix ;)
@spanner Thanks very much - it's horrible being allowed out ;)
February 17th, 2015  
This is really energetic and the light and dark contrast keeps my eyes coming back for more. As for the burn, if you insist on playing with fire get a prescription for silver sulfadiazine cream
February 18th, 2015  
Lovely capture with all the water spray around him. Do hope your hand heals ok. Sounds nasty...hope your house is still standing.
February 18th, 2015  
@pandorasecho Thanks - the alcohol seems to work nicely too ;)
@888rachel As far as I'm aware it's still standing - it wasn't too major though...and thank you :)
February 18th, 2015  
could you please stop with the glorious sun and water shots? i'm trying to enjoy my frigid canadian winter here in peace ;p

sorry to hear about your ouchie... hope it feels better soon...

ps - i love the word "smite"... i must think of a way of using it at a meeting tomorrow... this should keep me occupied for at least 10 minutes ;p
February 18th, 2015  
Blasphamy!! But I do love this shot!!
February 18th, 2015  
Hummmm, you crack on Jesus, then you burn your hand. I can't help but see a connection there!
February 18th, 2015  
Great splash. I hope your "friend" feels better soon. Play with fire, you will get burned.... didn't you know? :-) @homeschoolmom haha, good thinking!
February 18th, 2015  
I am with Northy, enough of these sunny summery shots, even though they are quite spectacular.
February 18th, 2015  
Wonderful spray!
February 18th, 2015  
Fabulous splash :)
February 18th, 2015  
@hermann Thanks very much :)
@redy4et Thank you kindly :)
@ukandie1 So sorry...it may or may not happen again ;)
@eyeamlisa I must have missed that lesson...and thank you
@homeschoolmom Actually, I burned my hand before that, so unless he's in an unnaturally vindictive mood...
@amandal What? Where? And thanks :)
@northy I like both the word and the action. So sorry to have disturbed your winter...very thoughtless of me.
February 18th, 2015  
OMG... wonderful splash, action, blue ocean and light, but a complete hand-clapping for using the words "smite," "bugger off," and "pompous git" in connection with the walking on water thingy. Hilarious. Plus... we are cold up here. Just remarking upon this, with some jealousy. Wonderful action in your shot.
February 18th, 2015  
Fabulous capture of that fantastic spray of water! Great shot!
February 18th, 2015  
Great splash
February 18th, 2015  
@neatz Thanks very much :)
@tabarlett Thank you kindly appreciated
@rosiekerr Thank you very much, one does what one can ;) Apologies for disturbing your coldness!
February 18th, 2015  
What Rosie said! @rosiekerr
February 18th, 2015  
OK, what happened here? I have been away from your album for a few days, and now I see color....and, lots of it!! And, water coming out of somebody's mouth instead of fire!! And, you taking on Jesus....you will burn in hell for that....and, you will probably enjoy it!! Anyway, this is indeed a fabulous shot....and, you have a way with words!
February 18th, 2015  
I hope you are looking after your hand - this is a fav for the words as much as the image - you made me laugh amid my pain and it was a welcome relief
February 18th, 2015  
oh and I award you a well done! sticker for using smite bugger off and pompous git in the one sentence
February 18th, 2015  
Very apt shot then nothing soothes a burn more then water, great shot
February 18th, 2015

Aaaw, so sorry to hear about the hand. Those fireballs really are tricky things. The water shot is fantastic. Apart from the alcohol, have you tried some Aloe Vera? (EXternally!!)
February 18th, 2015  
I would never have guessed that this was your shot! So much color. Love it :)
February 18th, 2015  
Gorgeous shot!

@graemestevens be careful - I do not give stickers to smarty pants
February 19th, 2015  
@annied My pants are more perfectly pressed than smart. Actually, thats a lie.
February 19th, 2015

February 19th, 2015  
@annied Woohoo!!!
February 19th, 2015  
@graemestevens oh I do love an excited woohoo! I wonder what a bottle of wine would do?
February 19th, 2015  
@annied it would go down well
February 19th, 2015  
@graemestevens it would indeed :) and may I add it did
