yep I know it is possbile to get a srtobe for my camera but I found that when I just had the film camera which I have a strobe for... most of the time I didn't bring the camera.. left it in the car.. that strobe mounted on makes it so much more difficult to manage... especially with my disability

Yes...that was a quick edit....I thought....man that is some good software...not only did it take care of the backscatter, it moved the shark in closer and changed its direction.

Hello Yes I believe I remember you from one of the Australian diving threads and also petunia has talked about you guys

Petunia, I mainly like my shots to be 'journalistic' rather than arty so I know what you are saying about being a purist however the flash picks up a lot more backscatter than I see when diving so I don't think there is anything 'impure' about removing it I tried to do it once but Picasa doesn't do it very well so I gave up. Don't have photoshop or anything like that. I have started clicking 'I'm Feeling Lucky' in Picasa and that often makes things brighten up a bit.
