2024 has been the year of the bait ball in Bonaire.  This tired turtle is looking for a place to rest, oblivious of the cyclone of big eye scan just meters away.  Shot with a Nikon Z8/Nauticam housing/INON z330 strobes.

After my strobe flooded I was left shooting the rest of the roll without artificial light. Found this Star Fish and took a shot. Taken along the most wonderful Kona side of "the Big Island" Hawaii. Nikonos V, 15 mm, and Kodak 100 film.

Rays at Dawn. / A dawn snorkel at Sting Ray Sandbar is one of my favorites. The light is spectacular and adds to the ability to get great black and whites.
