I know them all!

From Left to Right, KBeck in the background, Jenny, Capt. Gary, Mania, Marvel, and in the front is the lovely Michelle as in Howarde and Michelle.

We had some great dives together, and the Bash was Fun! I think it will be an annual event so those interested put it in the back of your mind for June/July timeframe in 2007 in the FL. Keys.

Nice pics so far Ron!!! I really like the Midnight Parrot school and the Sunset_GulfCoastFL one. What lens did you use on that one? Nice composition.

That was a 300mm F4 AFS lens. I shoot it more than one may think, and in situations where one may not think to use it. It's a limited lens, but nice to have.

You could get somewhat similar results at the 200mm end of your VR lens Kevin.

Moderating us, the Moderators, or the Forums? :lol:

Yes, these are with the D200. I really like it a lot. I think I'm going to sell the D1x and get a second one, but maybe not for a bit, we shall see.

Those Parrotfish were definately the highlight of that dive. It was a dive I did the Monday after SB people left. They were in the 2'~3' range, so they may no look it, but those were some big and stunning parrotfish in a school of maybe 30+, way cool, and for once, I had a camera on the ready!
