Nice, keep shooting and sharing, what did you upgrade from?
 
Sorry--I forgot to answer a question--My housing, ports and port extension are all Sea and Sea stuff-- the diopter is a B&W NL-2 ??

sounds great. are you using the fisheye dome port and the 40mm extension? I think that is what's recommended.

btw, I really like the composition on the trumpet fish.

Thanks ! This is my first UW camera setup. In March I took the UW Photography Advenure Dive as one of my AOW electives. They lent me an old small Sealife P&S. I really enjoyed taking UW pics with it, but thought that I'd be better off in the long run with a DSLR setup. I was a bit daunted at first by the whole size of the rig, but it was quite manageable underwater.

Thanks Scott-- Yes, that is the port and extension. The nice folks at Backscatter set me up with the package.
