Manatee Rider

I think there are several stories I could come up with for this picture. I thought about saying that she was trying to train the manatee, but it only wanted to eat seagrass, or that she was running out of air and needed to get to the surface. But if she can ride on a manatee then she could probably hold her breath just as long as a manatee too. In fact since manatees move so slow, riding on them shouldn't be too hard either.

I really need to try to do some more airbrushing and shading, but it never seems to turn out right with the optical mouse I use. It's more fun for me to just point click and presto...colors!
