First I want to say that any picture taken cannot convey how beautiful the the reef looks under the L&M NightSea light.
Also please remember there is what I see as a STEEP learning curve to get any pictures. My first big mistake was the wrong lens, Wide angle doom was a poor choice. I was hoping to capture large reef scape WRONG. I should have had a macro lens, the focus is much to short for a dome to capture the Bio-luminescence IMO. Next big mistake is not putting the light near the camera lens, I had Rox and Lynn lighting up the animals thinking I would be free to adjust the camera without the extra task of lighting. Also I am not really happy with my choices of aperture and shutter speed but hey this was the first time I ever tried Floro photography and only did it for 1 dive. All that said even a blind squirrel finds a nut now and then and I cannot wait to try the new ideas I have when I get another chance.

Although greens were the predominate color, it was also very amazing to see glowing reds, golds and golden browns among the greens. So pretty!
