Underwater Modeling: Are you a "Water Baby"?
I am a lifelong swimmer. Can do front and back turns underwater. Can hold my breath underwater for a few minutes at a time. I am a graceful underwater swimmer. I would definitely be considered a Novice.

May 26 09 11:31 pm Link I love swimming! My first swimming lessons were by the American Red Cross when I was 5 or 6 years old, living in Hawaii. My family lived in Guam for 2 years, Hawaii for 3 years and by the beach in Virginia for a year. When I was in high school, I took 3 years of Lifesaving and Water Safety and had to swim about a mile within a 50-minute class period for my final exam each year. I have swum every chance I've had. Last November, I spent about an hour swimming in Blue Hole at Santa Rosa, New Mexico, wearing only a pair of swimming trunks. The water temperature is about 60° F (16° C) year-round. Last week, I spent a few hours swimming in the pool at San Solomon Spring, in Balmorhea State Park in Texas. Here is a video segment shot from a sports camera that I had mounted on my head with a rubber strap (I was wearing swim fins for this particular segment): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xeHz93caMS4 I still remember a half-dozen swimming strokes from high school (front, back, side, breast, butterfly, modified breast) besides a few strokes that I invented so I could swim backwards, sideways or upside-down or all of them at one time. I can swim with my body held vertically straight while upside-down and my legs sticking out of the water. I was taught to dive off a 3-meter high dive, but I prefer to remain in the water if I can. I am comfortable appearing nude. Most of the modeling I have done has been for myself, self-portraits, though a friend did shoot a few frames of me while we were underwater. I would love to pose for underwater shoots. May 27 09 12:59 am Link Wow, I made the list! Oh Joy- Thanks! May 27 09 01:53 am Link Tarachin wrote: I guess you saw it?

Cheers James May 31 09 08:07 am Link I have not yet had the opportunity to give this a try. I was born and raised in Fl so naturally I have been swimming most of my life. Although the first few times back into the water after a long winter I don't last as long uw as I would like to. I often surprise people at how long I can stay underwater. May 31 09 01:53 pm Link new underwater shots will be up soon - i'll post them here. May 31 09 11:35 pm Link that sounds so fun =] May 31 09 11:39 pm Link My new UW shot is up!
