Ha ha ha...That's funny.
We actually rode out on a small pier when I took this shot, but now you have given me an idea. How about Insta-Float? I know they made cars that could go in the water but how about the Wing? We could call it the Insta-Float Water-Wing. Lets work on a design?!

Thanks for that and glad you like it. Cropping it won't change the horizon, unless I cropped it out all together, but rotating it would. Unfortunately, rotating it just a few degrees would make it less clear, and since I took it while I was driving out on the pier, I was just happy to get it at all before it poured.

Thanks for that. Being a published Photographer myself, I see you appreciate good pictures. I will use the first one, because it looks more like it did the day I took it. I could have used Adobe to fix it, but kind of like to leave originals alone since this is no contest as far as I know. But in this case, it looks good the way you rotated it. Since your putting planes up too, I may put one of mine up. I may also put up a bike ride photo that was recently published . Keep an eye out for those...
Take care,
Dave

Hey Dave, take a look one more time before I delete them, three more variations. I do almost strictly B&W 12x18s from 35 year old Nikons in my lab now, so it was nice to play around with a color image. I'm going for a short ride and then I'll come back and delete them from my site, and HD.

Ok, they're all gone.
