Thank you for the nice comments.
@HIGHwing: No.
@Scotttyd: Fuji S2Pro DSLR in a Subal FS2 housing, Nikon 12-24mm lens at 12mm, two Nikon SB-105 strobes.
@ShakaZulu: This was my first and only time there so I don't know for sure but I am told it was pretty normal viz, 40-60 ft. for the two wrecks I was on (Spar and Schurz). I was with Discovery Diving in Beaufort NC, they run a great operation.

Great shots. Sand tigers are like puppy dogs. They have them in the tank at Epcot. I truly doubt Disney would chance any mishaps with divers in the tank while hundreds of people are watching while eating their lunch.

Thanks caymaniac. Temp at depth (80-100fsw) was 72F.

Really? That cold? I've been there in August and the temps were in the low 80's.

Ken: We saw some butterfly rays in the sand next to the Spar when I was there. Big suckers, and I'd never seen anything like them. Did you see any of those? -Clay
