Great shots. I particularly like the first one, I haven't been able to get the black background on my shots yet.

Awesome pics Jim. I too love the first one with the two fish silhouetted on a black background. Was that a night shot or high f-stop, high shutter speed, high flash? I'm so jealous of the tropical vis. Right now we've got about 8 feet in Monterey with green crud.

Unique perspective on the cleaner and goatfish. Was the GF perpendicular? Looks like you were under them but it would be pretty hard to get that black BG from there unless it was night.

I like the kayak shot best. Is that Steve?

It was a day dive and I was not under them. I shot the photo at F5 and 1/400. I don't remember what setting I had the strobe on.
I did some cropping in PS7 as well as use the "Clone Stamp" tool to remove the other fish.

The original is to your left.
