link to trip report in full, by request

[sharky60]

Sorry for the redundancy, but several folks have PM'd me and asked that I post the trip report as one piece as the 2 posts are getting seperated too much.

SOOOOOOOO.. here's a link to the full book: http://dive.scubadiving.com/members/tripreports.php?s=3017

also here's a link to the photoz so I won't get yelled at for that also:

Wow! Thanks for taking the time to post a link - I know I am not the only one that slacks off and won't go looking for stuff!

Love the barracuda, the turtle and the diver with the ring!! And that gray angel is superb - I'd be touching him up a bit and getting a print done, for sure!

Did that arrowcrab walk onto her hand or was it placed? I just wonder - had a nudibranch I didn't even know was there wander onto mine a couple of months back...when I looked down, there he was! It took two of us to remove him safely back to the reef.

Thanks for the kind words, yeah, I still need to do some photoshop work with some of them. I hope to do better with my camera on the next trip, this was the first time to use it, I just purchased it and there was a little learning curve moving up from the DX3000 to the DX5000G. I still have a ways to go to match you photowork, that's for sure!!

the DM found the arrowcrab and was handing it around to everyone, that is actually my wife holding it, it was HUGE for an arrowcrab.

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that your photos needed work!! I haven't actually printed any of mine very large, but from what I have read from others it is worth spending a little time to really get nitpicky in photoshop before having them done! I think they are great!

Great pix!! I was there a week ahead and rented the 3000G from Holly. Definately looking to get the 5000G.
