A picture is worth a 1,000 words.

When things get really slow this winter and the Stircrazy Boredom from Hell sets in, we'll have to have a Photoshop Contest to see who can get together the most outrageous composition.

Oldgrowth Dave will probably win with his skills, but you can start thinking up ideas ahead of time to get a head start.

That's a genuine photo, and a spooky looking one at that. A 3.8 meter kayak and a 4 meter Great White. Whoa! Here's the story.

Wow! Hard to believe it's real.

The second photo is even more alarming!

If that were me, those paddles would be such a blur that it would hard to get the photograph, regardless of the shutterspeed... bet I could get that kayak up on plane! Shocked

Looking at the two photos, I would say they understated the shark’s size and over stated the kayak’s size.
4 meters = 13’
3.8 meters = 12’ 4”
Kayak looks a little shorter than 12’ but if it is 12’ 4”, that shark sure looks like it is more than 8” longer than the kayak.
