First underwater pics

So, have been on holiday in Sabah and bought a second hand diving camera off a diver who'd just upgraded. Quite difficult to get a decent shot when you are constantly in motion, but you certainly get a grip on your buoyancy rapidly. Best to be slightly negative than neutral.
So I won't post a load, just the highlights.

Chromadis sp of nudibranch





























Lionfish





























Scorpion fish






































Mantis shrimp





























feather stars on soft coral

That's all I'll bore you with, took about 120 shots, about 50 of which were ok. Was very happy with them, for a first attempt, may have to splash out on the external flash though.

  1. Sorry the text is all a bit weird because i originally posted from my iPhone and then tried to edit from my laptop,I either start the post from scratch or let it be. It's all about the pics really anyway and you can see those.

  2. Great pics Gaz, glad you got your hands on an underwater camera, looking forward to seeing more mate. Very impressive. Nice to see what you're seeing while submerged within the watery depths of Borneo.
