Be sure to put a moisture muncher inside the dry area of the flash head.

Much appreciated! I'm actually in Bonaire this week, so I hope to post some new ones soon.

Hi,

Love the pics. Have a question. Did you use any special lens to get such great focus on the small critters like the shrimp picture you have? Any tricks would be appreciated.

Unfortunately, they don't make a macro lens for these cameras (that I'm aware of). Just get as close as possible (and as close as you can that will still allow the strobes to provide light for the shot) and have the macro flash and macro focus set. Usually anything inside a foot or two will focus pretty well with the macro focus on if it's in the center of the frame.
