Looking good Amy

Still have to get use to seeing the high ISO UW f 11 at 1/60 was more the norm :) btw since you have the ability try stopping down to f 22 for the sunburst effect, works great UW.

Classic close up wide angle image and sure got some even light on the sea fan !!! Big Congrats !!!

Well shown Amy,
I like the wide angle and the rendition of colors and hues...:cool:

Classic sea fan shot. I love the subtlety of the sun burst. As Alfred says, very impressively even lighting on the fan especially with a single strobe. Nice one.

Cheers.

Sean

EDIT: I might try and do something about cloning out the bubbles.

Amy, very good shot! I've never done any underwater photography so I don't feel I can comment.But it is nice and clear!
