I finally made my way through the 24 gigs of photos I shot last month while diving at CoCo View. Be gentle as I was using a new camera and I finally added strobes. Focus, or lack there of was a huge issue. This was especially problematic when shooting at F/2.8. I'll be adding a focus light before the next trip in September.

Most of my shots were done in aperture priority, but it's time to go full manual.

Any suggestions/criticisms would be greatly appreciated.

A special thanks to RoatanMan. I thought I was seeing "small" critters until he introduced me to an entirely new level of smallness. Tis true that virtually everything underwater has some form of life living within/on it. Thanks RoatanMan. I'm eternally grateful for the time we spent together.

Camera: Canon T1i
Lens: Canon EF-S 60mm macro
Housing: Watershot
Strobes: Inon Z240 & S2000 shot STTL
Photographer: eTard

Anyway, here's a quick preview, and a link to the photos:

awesome pics the detail is great!!! .....wow how do you find all those little critters.....these old eyes have a hard time...glad to see the pic of Tulio's memorial...I try to clean it up when I am there....looks like it has a lot of growth on it now....is the little damsel fish still there protecting it?....thanks for sharing....that is some macro lense !!!!
 
You have absolutely captured the essence of what I love so much about the south side of Roatan...great job! :D:D:D
 
nice.
 
Thanks for all of the kind words everyone. I've got a ton yet to learn, and am open to constructive criticism and instruction.

How do I find all the critters....... It's all about going extremely slow. RoatanMan taught me the difference between what I thought was "slow", and what "slow" really is.

I didn't see the Damsel fish, but that doesn't mean that he/she isn't there.
 
Wonderful and amazing. It's been 5 weeks since we were at CCV and feels like a year. Thanks for bringing back such great
pictures to look at.

I know what you mean. I was there last March, and again in July, yet it seems like 6 months ago. My only remedy was to book another trip back there in September:eyebrow:. Problem solved:D
