I've been diving since the end of 2002. I took my first U/W pictures with a disposable camera and have since progressed to a Canon 40D in an Ikelite housing with a DS-125 & DS-51 strobe. Most of my picutures come from my home in San Diego, California so visibiity and back scatter are always a challenge, but make the clear waters of tropical destinations such a treat.
