In air but definitely not "Topside." Taken inside the Aquarius undersea habitat/laboratory. This is the bunk "room" where six aquanauts sleep for ten nights during saturation research missions. Often one of the Goliath groupers will peek in. 55 fsw.
Taken at the Aquarius undersea habitat/laboratory diving with the sponge research team in June. This is one of the resident Goliaths - like a big dog. 55 fsw at Conch Reef off Key Largo

We always love the frame-within-a-frame shot, especially in the shape of a heart!
This shot was taken in just 2 metres of water in Nuweiba. There was a huge baitball circling the jetty there being herded by a single lionfish. This was taken using my Canon S95 with a fisheye lens using the underwater mode.
