Thanks

Pretty eagle ray...

Very cool eagle ray shot! Looks surreal, like a rubblefield on the Moon, just more colorful. Thanks for sharing.

Great as usual....what was the depth on the Eagle Ray? How far away were you from him/her?

 

[Gilligan]

Otter,
I was at 60 feet and the Ray was about 40 to 50 feet from me as best I can guess.

Incredible lighting/visiblity....obviously too far for your strobe, it must just be heaven having such wonderful conditions to dive in.

Thanks for once again bringing Hawaii's beauty to us mainlanders.
