Another great trip yielded a few keepers. This was my third trip out with my G9 in Ike housing. Earlier this year I added the DS-125 for our trip to Bonaire. Before this trip, I upgraded my Ike arms for Inon w/ULCS connectors to provide a longer reach and easy adjustment and double handle tray. But most importantly I added an Ike wide angle lens which I shot almost exclusively mainly because I was afraid of dropping it while taking it off in addition to not having a caddy for it. So on my wish list before our next trip is a caddy and a pair of macro lenses and maybe, just maybe, a second strobe.
Aside from some cropping to cut out the black corners caused by not zooming in a bit with the WA lens, no other post processing was applied to these.
This Spotted Drum is my favorite. He was out in the open with a nice back ground as opposed their usual dark cave and he held still for a few breif seconds.
Worked on some sunbursts and this was about the best I could do. Still pretty happy with the results of this Flamingo Tongue.
Could not get this Longsnout Seahorse to sit up straight and proper with the stiff current blowing from behind him but still a cool find in Coz I must say.
Same with this Pipehorse.
Saw a lot of Porcupine Puffers either nesting or sleeping in some turtle grass during a shore dive.
Saw a lot of Splendid Toadfish as well but what would a trip be to Cozumel without seeing one?
Nurse Shark closeup.
Yellow Stingray closeup.
Saw 2 Lesser Electric Rays this trip. Never seen one before.
Scorpionfish
Conch with a cool shell. Which I could get up and under to get the eyes better but I'll settle for some eyes and cool shell.
Best Blenny I got... I really need those stacked macros!
