Swamp Thing

I was hoping to try and portray some feeling of the heat in this shot and I think I managed but maybe it's just because I'm here in the heat. Coming from Scotland I'm not used to this level of heat and humidity, it was 35C (95F) but the humidity adds a new dimension to the heat. The residents here can't believe that a good day in Scotland is about 22C (72F) and we get about 5 of those a year :o)

 

It's why you find Scots descendents all over the world.... we were searching for some better weather ;o)

 

In Scotland at dusk the big splashes behind me are usually sea trout but I don't think they have sea trout here in the swamp... so I'm not sure what the thing was that made that big slappy splash behind me.

 

Please no graphics in your comments, unless it's from a group I've posted in - thanks
