Hey, it's me, Baxter, your roving rover reporter reporting to you today from my very own backyard, cuz somebuddies have asked how it was we took that underwater picture of me bobbing for a carrot from yesterday. So today I am showing u the setup we used, which is quite simple really because all u really need are two stools and a glass dish with handles. U know, for like they kind they use for baking, or in my mom's case, for dyeing silk in the microwave. Although she has not yet used this dish for that particular purpose yet and it is still fresh and new from HomeGoods. Which is why I could use it for bobbing for carrots.
Anyhoo all u need to do is suspend the dish between the two stools, make sure the set up is nice n sturdy, fill it with water, chop up some carrots and stick your camera under the dish and voila! But be careful not to have your camera too close to the edge of the dish unless u have a waterproof one cuz bobbing for carrots can be a very wet affair. Like this, let me show u.
Yep all that water has to go somewhere and sometimes it goes all over the floor which might mean it could get all over your camera and that could be a big boo hoo. So take it from me n my mom, anticipate the path of your pup's carrot bob and stay very far away from it. Unless u have a waterproof camera, know what I mean?
Well I hope u enjoyed today's photography lesson and are inspired to make your own underwater adventure moment. And if u do, please feel free to share your underwater pictures or a link to them on my facebook fan page so we can all see. :)
This is Baxter your roving rover reporter wishing you the snackiest of snackies! :)

Haha, I just love the idea! I may have to use it sometime. You could probably get some fantastic photos that way! :)
Great pics again Baxter!! I especially like the one w/ water all over your face. :)
Jasper did pretty good last night, he got all the carrots out of his bowl!! Although the first one took the longest because he couldn't quite figure it out:)
