Monday's (1/12) Maui dive photos

[Gilligan]

The weather was stormy, another ocean swell is building, lots of particulate matter in the water, visiblity mediocre for here but "Marty's Reef" was full of marine life today.

Do you do any more "mandrak'ing" now that you have the strobe??? Or do you find that you have to do less post correction/adjustments now?

boney:
I only use/used the "mandrake process" on pics taken w/o an internal/external strobe.
justleesa:
I don't use full time auto focus. I rely on pushing the shutter half way down to get the focus then all the way down when the fish is in the picture.
