So I went swimming in my tail today! It was amazing! Hubby snapped a few pics with his cell phone; the lake I went into was very murky and soooo much silt on the bottom that we didn't get too many but for just trying the tail out & not really staging a real photoshoot we still got some good ones! Thought I'd share!

I was flipping around in this pic but I like how you can see the fluke

I just moved it to general costume tails discussions.

BTW, great photos! Its too bad you didn't get a chance to meet up with Oceana and I at Dragoncon. I'm sure you looked awesome.

Thank you and agreed! I am planning on bringing the tail next year and hopefully we can plan ahead a little more so my schedule can work this time! :D

Oo pretty!! Your tail is green, right? It looks kind of aqua but it's super pretty :D What lake was this?

Yes it's green; remember it was my Hubby's cell phone taking pics and whoooboy was it bright out so the color is off.

It was actually on a river that comes out of Lake Austin; I'm not sure if the river or the part I was in has an actual name. :p

Here is a pic of my tail that more accurately shows the color; I think the brightness of the day outside combined with the bright colors of ME freaked my husbands camera out in the above pics. ;D

cute as a button! Did you try swimming? Is this your first realistic tail? I always get a kick out of hearing peoples first experiences swimming in one :p

Yup I swam around the little grotto I was in but I didn't go too far; we were short on time and like I said the water was reaaaaally murcky and full of algae due to the crazy temps we've been having. I honestly don't like swimming in lakes unless they are very clear; give me a salt water pool any day. Sadly the only one I have access to is 3 hours from my house! LOL!

I have swam in my spandex tail with a monofin and it felt similar to that; looked a lot better though! :D

Heehee, only a Countess currently. ;D you are very sweet too! As you can see I ended up swimming in the lake too; my friend bailed on me swimming in the salt water pool at the last minute. :p
