Underwater Pictures

My interest in Scuba Diving started in July 2004 as my wife and I went on a one week cruise to Puerto Rico, St. Thomas, and St. Maarten.

It was in St. Maarten we tried Discover Scuba. It was a glimpse into the underwater world and we just simply got hooked. Diving is an incredible experience we recommend it to everybody. It's a great escape from the daily grind, no cell phones, no traffic, just you and natures majesty. I hope you enjoy these pictures.This gallery contains pictures taken with a Reefmaster 3.3 mgpx. camera. The Reefmaster is a great entry level setup, although you wouldn't want to print any pictures beyond 8"x11" After purchasing my 20D, pictures came out much sharper and I can print to 30"x40". Shooting the 20D in its Ikelite housing is a little tricky. Factoring the effects of a strong current and maintaing good bouyancy to prevent from hitting a delicate reef, takes some getting used to. Nevertheless the experience underwater is always incredible. Many people do not realize how much beauty there is to encounter in the ocean.

For other great pictures from the deep, I would recommend you visit http://oceanicdreams.com/index2.html This site is spectacular, take a look and you will understand how I got hooked on Underwater Photography.
