My favorite is when you upload your nudi pics and find tiny bycatch nudis you didn't see earlier.

Nice Clown (Triopha catalinae) coming head on there Phil.

He was very cooperative. He was on a piece of algae, so I was able to get several angles.

Talked to another diver who used to use my same camera. Some of her photos are in a book and she has equipment for sale. Then maybe I will be able to get better macro shots..

Looking forward to seeing them Jenny. Hopefully she has a macro wet lens for your housing?

That last Clown shot is a winner Phil, I like how the rhinophore is so clearly defined against the dark background.

yes, her photos appear in the book "Under the Bridge" a photo book of critters found at Blue Heron Bridge.
funny.. I heard the camera was so good.. so I bought it and wasn't impressed. Then I met the author of the book and told me that her friend shot with the OLY SP-350 for the shots .. and I looked at the book.. and was impressed. I read the owner's manual (who'd a thunk there was so much good info in those pages? ), and started playing with the macro settings and other stuff.. now it's time to add a part or few to take the next step..
Despite it being an older camera, and I seriously have camera envy with everybody's awesome shots.. I am determined to prove to myself that I can take a decent shot with a point n shoot..
and to supply said camera with a healthy supply of batteries..
