The Short journey of a bubble - one of my favourite feelings is just about to happen here:
With dry hair, small pockets of air get trapped as I lower gently into the water, air bubbles which form are desperate to reach the bath water's surface. Once submerged, I lay still in wait for them to gently contour their way to the left and right of my neck. The sensation of a bubble tracing around like this is heaven and best has to be when there are two, one on each side at the same time. Soon as your hair is fully wet its all over. Try it and enjoy.

do you have time for such langorous baths every day? I shall have to forsake my shower and try it out. Mind, what happens with short hair? MMM. Anyways, love the dry skin being lapped by the rising water in the shot, smashing

Thanks for your comments, my favourite bit about this photo is the water's tension around my shoulder too for those that liked that.
@naughtonlucy, yes you could get good results with this yourself, and Ive retitled this image after your apt comment. Thank you.
@Nomad Chilled Champers? I'd rather drink it.
@amiko yes give it a go, you wont be dissapointed and we can monitor your hair length via your 365's.
@Graniers - No I only take one bath a year, whether I need it or not (finished work for Xmas so now more time in the mornings)

Looks like a relaxing moment. I never have the time, it's always a fast shower. Nice Skin and water tones captured in this picture!

I would like to suggest that you drain the tub completely while you're still in it. Close your eyes and enjoy the sensation.

Gosh gosh, this reminds me of an artist's work I saw on Etsy.com. You will see, look here (see under prints - he has a few water ones)
My faves are the last ones on page 2, with the window scene on background.

You look like a Brazilian actress (one of the best at her craft, BTW) called Marilia Pera. :)

This is an amazing shot the way the surface of the water is hugging the contours of the collar bone, it's a fascinating view of a very simple thing. I love it. By the way like the avatar!

Thank you
@rubiopic2006, well you have 12 months to grow your hair and enjoy this instead!
@stanemason - thank you, I do love that bit too and was pleased that my lesser camera managed to highlight that detail (didnt want to outstretch my 350D in the same way) And thanks also...now that wikipedia helped me understand the avatar remark!!

Ah, I know what you mean! Sometimes if you lie in the bath long enough, bubbles seem to form all over you. I love the tingles as they run up and off my body - such a great feeling!

Yup, I don't have any hair but the bubbles are still tickling their way around for the first few minutes.
Sunday evening baths.. wonderful. Especially if a hot chocolate magically appears halfway through :-)

The water on your skin looks amazingly strange!
It's mad and fantastic.

What a wonderful photo. The water around your shoulder looks almost like oil. I really like the way you've cropped it as well.
