Hi Gaby, we were in Australia part of June and July, we enjoyed it immencsly. We dove out of Port Douglas on the liveaboard "Diversity". I think we enjoyed Osprey, Shark and Lizard Island area the most. We also enjoye the Minke whales and the rainforest.

Dive Safe,

Nice pictures, we did some diving out of Port Douglas and Lizard Island 3 years ago. I forgot just how nice it was. Hope to be going back next year....

Very, VERY nice! You're composition is great, especially on the wide angle shots.

What camera and setup are you using?

Hi all,
thank you for all the nice posts - always good to hear that other people like to share one's experiences!

My setup is an "oldfashioned" analog Canon EOS 300 SLR camera in an aluminium housing of UK Germany with quite a strong flash of Subtronic (Gamma) - both German companies. I work with a 50 and 90 mm macro (the 90 mm got flooded on one of its very first dives last year and is irreparable... :-( my first experiences with flooding the camera...), a 28-80 mm zoom and a 20 mm wide-angle.

Normally, I do mainly macro shots but enjoyed wide-angle a lot in Australia - but you need the appropriate reefs, visibility and creatures for wide-angle, that's the reason I didn't do a lot of it so far...

@justleesa: thanks for your entry in my guestbook! Are you from Germany originally? What a great thing to move to Hawaii... ;-)

Have a good start into the new week,
Gaby
