Pix on Seapix

[Seapix]

Can't believe all the compliments I'm getting. Thanks to all. Especially you, Dee. (do I have to send you money now?

Yes, the pix are mine and my wife's. As for equipment...

Most of the pictures are taken with a Nikonos IV or V, Sunpak Marine Strobe and Sea & Sea wide angle lens, though I've recently switched to digital.

If you visit the Seapix galleries, click the the Photo Details link at the bottom. I've included most of the pertinent photo information for each picture, since I think that's the best way of learning which equipment to use to for a specific type of shot. It's how I learned.

Last item: I know I said I wouldn't post any pictures today, but since I already posted a Grey Angel and a Moray that we used to feed by hand, how about a Humphead Wrasse Picture?

Just FYI: morays loved beef and cheese strips (weren't too crazy about hardboiled eggs), whereas Humpheads loved beef and hardboiled eggs, but didn't like cheese. I guess there's just no accounting for tastes.

that's not a humphead wrasse, that's a humphead whale! WOW, that thing is huge, great shot!

HiDiver:

I appreciate the nice words about the Gray Angelfish on the Prince Albert. Here's a link, if you're still interested...

Gray Angel

I really miss Herbie (he was such an easy subject to photograph, since he was always on the lookout for hand outs)

Guess I'll just have to go back to Cocoview

Actually it’s a “Tangison” (what it’s called in Guam), pronounced something like Tan-Gee-Sun. You are both right, It’s a Humphead Wrasse; Nepoleonfish, or Dheilinus undulatus
