unfortunate but not true... we also have this type of BS...

try to stay warm :)

ask as many other divers as you can... pick some younger ones, pick some older ones, and listen to what they have to say.... Whatever you choose don't forget that this instructor will only give you a VERY SMALL INTRODUCTION to diving and that most learning will be done later on your own... So...

sometimes, I don't like talking to myself :)

Right now, I would say that they are diving in tears :) but Italians were typical Italians (2 goals in last 2 minutes)

It's not that simple! But, basically if you have to ask online you're probably not ready for it! If vis is so low that you don't feel safe with a buddy maybe you should cancel the dive and wait for a better vis....

Hi, Illiad and welcome... If you have the money buy from those that feel right and don't worry... There will allways be good and bad service (on- or off- line) and that's it! But, this has become another worthless online vs. LDS fight, instead of simply telling the truth that: MASK, SNORKLE AND...

where was your regulator during this time?????

snorkel is for snorkeling.... I always scuba without one....

It's not another LDS vs. online debate!!! They require only the basic stuff and this IS THE CHEAPEST part of equipment that you will buy! Since you already said you don't know what to buy go to them and let them help you (that's what they are for)..... Trust them for this, and buy this small...

Go down by the anchor (and remember your depth)! If it's a slope or a wall this will help you find it: 1. get back to the same depth and head back to the boat 2. "back to the boat" is defined as: if shalow part was on your left when going in one direction, it will be on your right when heading...

well, if you're diving with dive centers it's from 20 to 50 EUR (depending on location and equipment) - you'll need an additional license (around 15 EUR) but it lasts for 1 year... Some places don't require the license and some do (it is reuqired by law but there is currently no penalty if you...

Actually 2:1 breathing is probably what you want! If you look at Anatomy of Hatha Yoga by David Coulter (ch. 2, The Physiology of Breathing, page 91) it clearly says: "One breathing techinque that can produce a beneficent effect on the autonomic nevous system is 2:1 breathing - taking twice as...

It's probably not "what" but "how"... Maybe try screaming and she will hear you :-)

Just enjoy your dives and don't be bothered by technical details....

S50 supports raw! Use it and fix your white balance on computer... Your images won't be so blue... (you'll need a bigger card for that)

you can do some postprocessing in photoshop (and similar programs), but what is lost is lost.... Options that you want are Levels, Curves and Color Balance... But be carefull to not overdo it....

It's a strange feeling seeing divers grabbing octopuses and other things they find on the bottom, but it's Cuba... pictures are very nice but to fix the blue ones you only have 2 choices (or maybe only 1): 1. shoot in raw and easily fix it later (don't know if your fuji has raw) 2. use manual...

don't forget to check who's he looking at or what's he touching... :D husbands are such a pain, aren't they?

Take a bottle of Cola and open it... Those bubbles you see are exactly what can happen in your blood if you go too fast! Now ask yourself what happens if those bubbles go somewhere and get blocked (and you are still surfacing)... Just take it slow...
