Here's a few more photos I took while snorkeling in Curacao several weeks ago. Camera was a Canon PowerShot A630 in a Canon housing, which is pretty much a standard point-and shoot that I bought 3 years ago. It's 8 mgp.
Peacock flounder:
Lots of fish:
Orange cup coral. This was taken with the camera's built-in flash. It took many shots to get this to come out reasonably well:
Tugboat wreck, a famous diving/snorkeling site on Curacao. Snorkelers don't get to experience many wrecks because wrecks usually don't last long in shallow water due to storms, hurricanes, removal because they are hazards to navigation, etc. Curacao's location below the hurricane belt in the Caribbean probably explains why the tugboat wreck has lasted so long:
Blue tangs, a very common scene for anyone who has snorkeled in the Caribbean:
I have more snorkeling photos from various localities here:
