Great shots, Jim. Your Moray is fabulous as always. Sweet shot of the two Eagle Rays. I'm always most impressed with your ability to get clean shots of well disquised subjects against a sandy bottom, which I've found to be about the most challenging lighting issue. Was the flounder taken with natural light or did you use the Inon?

That had to be a fun dive. Thanks.

Thanks. I know what you mean about shots against the bottom. I took several shots of the flounder using only manual white balance and didn't like them when compared to the ones using the strobe. The ones posted here are using the strobe.
