These hilarious photo fails show why you should never pose around water for a holiday snap

THESE are the cringeworthy holiday photos which prove why you should never have a photoshoot by the pool or take snaps by the sea.
Taking photos around water is a risky business and, as these photos show, it leads to plenty of opportunities for embarrassing slip-ups, wardrobe malfunctions or going overboard.
Over the years, most holidaying families have fallen victim to the curse of awkward photos, and many are documented on the site .
But these are the photos which really stand out - for all the wrong reasons.
Some of these brilliant photo fails feature unfortunate wardrobe malfunctions, like the plight of this one man who forgot his trunks whilst on a trip.
Fortunately (or not) for him, he was able to get hold of a fetching pink pair of pants, which he awkwardly poses in for this cringey snap.
Another fail photo sees a family pose in a Jacuzzi, with a son lying across the back of the tub whilst the family smile for the camera inside it.
However, the placement of the proud mum's head makes it look as if her son is naked behind her. Awkward.
This shy subject ended up avoiding the camera lens by accident, after she slipped backwards whilst on a yacht trip - just as the snap was captured.
And this haunting attempt at a panoramic picture went completely wrong after this man's dive messed up the action shot, leaving a mangled collection of rogue limbs in his place.
Meanwhile, a day at the aquarium proved to be one to remember for this traumatised toddler - for all the wrong reasons.
What should have been a nice photo was ruined by the sight of a pair of romping hippos having the time of their lives in the tank behind her.
And a trip on a log flume produced a comical souvenir, after a woman on the ride was snapped in front of a much less-enthusiastic passenger.
Another photo showed one dad's unconventional way to enjoy a beer by the pool, after he was snapped drinking a can through a woggle, with the help of his daughter.
Something fishy was amiss in this photo, which shows a chuffed lad holding a monstrous fish in a loving embrace, whilst his sister looks on in confusion.
And this woman decided to use a day at the beach to try out Photoshop for the first time, inexplicably adding her face to a shot of an empty beach.
A far more successful Photoshop saw this couple pretend to carry out a murder, with the pair imposed on a waterfall backdrop to create the funny photo.
