Here are some pictures I've taken from diving on the GBR and in Micronesia. Just taken on point and shoot cannon cameras without strobes, so don't expect too much.
These first ones are quite recent. One of my most amazing diving experiences. We had been out fishing and I was cruising back to port when all of the sudden this dolphin jumped out right in front of the boat. I quickly shut the motors down and one turned into two, then three. I grabbed the closest mask, snorkel and fins I could find and grabbed my underwater camera. While I was getting my gear together they took off, so I entered the water and hang off the ladder seeing if they would come back. Sure enough a minute later they were back with a fourth. They were moving quite fast and I didn't have time to play around with the camera settings and I was bobbing around on the surface so the pictures aren't that great, but any pointers would be appreciated.
The surface pictures were taken on my new G12 but I hadn't tested the housing at that stage so didn't want to risk flooding it in the water.
