Pictures from a trip to BVI

[plr0]

Hi all,
I spent a week in February on a 3-masted schooner called the Juliet -- sailing and diving in BVI. This was my third trip with my camera setup -- Olympus c-5050, PT-015. I had a great time and thought I would share some photos -- here's one of my favorites - an octopus.

Other pictures can be seen at - BVI, Feb 2004 Album .

Thanks,
Peggy

Thanks, I'm still learning and haven't ventured out of totally automatic mode yet. I'm using the flash on the camera and I'm using the settings recommended in the article by Jeff Faris on digitaldiver.net - here's the link to the article.

Camera Settings for Olympus C-X0X0 and No Strobe

I want to figure out My Modes and set up some modes that will be easy to flip to -- I would have like to try movie mode with the eagle ray.

Thanks all --

I'm having so much fun with all of this -- I just wish I had taken up diving years ago. It seems like now I'm working to support these trips. I haven't got the next trip planned yet - that has to happen soon.

Dee -- I thought of you when I was taking pictures of the Christmas Tree worms. It seemed like I saw feather dusters, and christmas tree worms everywhere.

I really like the following picture -- I just wish the Christmas Tree worm was in better focus and wasn't overexposed. I haven't played around with it yet -- essentially I'm planning on tossing it -- but thought I see if anyone has ideas on how it could be fixed first. Any ideas?
