Cayman - Picture of the Day

[BubbleBlocker]

these are some great pics.

going to GC for 1st time in November. What lenses would you reccomend? seems to be a lot of macro.

Where are you going to stay and dive? I've been posting a lot of macro shots, but there are a lot of phenomenal wall dives with beautiful pinnacles out on East End. For that and for the north wall you'd typically want a wide angle or fisheye lens. It was really unusual for me to shoot macro up in the Bablyon/Julie's Wall area, but I did today. I'd normally be doing wall and swim thru shots. I'll have to dig further into photos and start posting some up. I think you'd find that Cayman is typically known more for wide angle than macro, but there are a lot of great macro opportunities.

What camera do you have?

OK, last one from me. Still not a good pic but I like the composition. Cobalt Coast June 2011




Edit: there are several fish among the corals and sponges. I was just lucky to catch one of our divers in the background. She does have good trim though

Not the same sponges. I need to start using some lights and maybe a red filter.

Definitely a strobe would bring out more--that & a good PS place, lol.......I've really started enjoying LR I got last year..
