Very nice, and thanks for sharing. The 3rd photo is a keeper, and might be worth blowing up.

Nice collection

#1 and #5 are great! Well done.

Your first time? Jeez...I also like #1 and #3, thanks for sharing. Looking forward to seeing photos as you dive the camera more :14:

Nice. Looks like the jack was hanging out with the stingray in hopes of finding goodies. That's my favorite of your group.

I'd say you are doing very well. Like buoyancy control the best way to learn is by doing.

yeah... lol

I had taken a few underwater shots before with my film MX-10 and strobe, but most of those pictures came just "alright". That camera was much smaller and easier to use.


For the camera I used my old Sony DSC-F717 5.1 megapixel

Specs can be found here...

Underwater Housing by a company called 10Bar
Test Pressure - 10 Bar (300 ft.) Housings are individually tested

For strobe.. Epoque ES-150DS Digital slave strobe

I bought the strobe and housing used from a guy in Hawaii about 3 weeks ago.

Some of the daylight pics I took with either a cloudy white balance, or a manually adjusted white balance.

Very nice, Jorge. That fifth shot is terrific. Like the eel, too!

Thanks for sharing. I've never seen a Bar Jack hang out with a ray before.

Where did you get your strobe and cable. Epoque doesn't have a US distributor.

I to am a fan of 5.
If 7 had been head towards you by the same amount as it is heads away then that would have been a fantastic pic. Well there is always next time.

For a firts attempt these are great pictures.
