Hi! Anyone remember me??

Man, it's been two months since I hit the water and it was well past time to take advantage of the outstanding conditions we've been having all whale shark season. I've been stuck in the shop and in the office hearing stories, seeing photos and watching videos of beautiful blue water and amazing sea creatures. Yesterday I got out for two myself and it was heavenly!

Here are a few happy snaps for you

01 - enormous school of convict surgeons

02 - a little bridge of them swimming between two peaks

03 - a mountain of convicts

04 - big ol' turtle with only three flippers. Didn't seem to slow him down

05 - huge school of stripey pufferfish

06 - scenic bit

Canon 40D, Sigma 17-70 macro, 2 Inon strobes, Subal housing & big dome port

Beautiful shots, as always. Were those taken with the 17-70? How's it work for macros at the tight end? Do you shoot them behind the dome?
