Another Loggerhead

This is the time of year when Loggerhead Turtles lay their eggs. During the day they are sleeping and resting on the reefs.

With your wide-angle lens, that means (s)he must have been REALLY close! Wish you could have gotten the whole shell in, but I know shooting underwater there are only so many opportunities, because EVERYTHING is in motion....

Nice shot.

Nice shot, from a fellow underwater photographer. Do you like the G9 in Ikelite housing?

I like the G9 though it's just a pit stop. I purchased 1 Ikelite DS-125 and will get the second one soon. Having a D300 I was just unable to meke the investment on the housing, ports, dome etc. for the DSLR rig. I'll keep this for a while and sell the housing and camera sometime down the road. You can check out some of my other shots at www.zenfolio.com/gyoss (http://www.zenfolio.com/gyoss). The Nassau Pics were all taken with the G9, bird pics taken with the D300/300f/4 and the others scuba with a SeaLife DC600.
What do you use when you shoot?

I use a D200 in Subal housing. I love the housing.Very easy to use and maintain.
The D300 will be a lot of fun in the water! And a ton of money...
I will check out your web-site. I guess I should jump in and upload an image or two.
