1/250 at f8 with Tokina 10-17. This shot at 10mm and as I looked up I saw the diver swimming back to the boat and waited for him to go through the sun ball.

1/80 at f14 on 105mm
I am used to diving the Asia Pacific region where anemones are very common, but in The Caribbean they are not so common so I shot this with a black background and was delighted with the colours the strobes brought out.

1/60 at f16
Usually these French Angel Fish are very skittish but after ten minutes or so they got used to me and as they were really interested in eating a sponge they kept coming back to me. I settled down for a long wait and finally was rewarded.

45 minutes of lying in the sand in one 3 foot section of reef and I finally got this shot. I thought my subject was pretty patient too....

I'm always looking for unusual shapes and angles and this solitary sponge on the pinnacle at Babylon really attracted me.

I ran this through Photomatrix to create an HDR from one Raw image. Then ran it through Lucis to create this effect.

1/200 @ f6.3
I really used a shallow depth of field here to accentuate the teeth. It's amazing how they have a row of teeth in the roof of the mouth. Wouldn't want to be a fish stuck in there!

1/250 @ f14
Tough to get a shot of these guys feeding but when they do I think it looks spectacular. Like little fishermen casting their nets. Shot with two strobes, next time I'm going to try side lighting to give some more depth.

1/125 @ f5 shot with 105mm
One of my shots from my first liveaboard trip with a camera. There were a lot of cuttlefish on this trip and I especially like the colours on this shot.

1/50 @f5.6
I love Mantas. This shot was taken whilst snorkeling with them at Helengeli Thila. I made it B&W as I think Mantas lend themselves beautifully to this and it also helps get rid of some of the cloudiness of the water.

Helengeli Thila is clearly the place for manta shots

1/125 @ f25
I'd love to tell you I planned this shot but I got lucky. However you make your own luck and I sat in front of this ribbon eels hole for ages just shooting as it came into focus. Bit of vignette added in Lightroom and a boost to levels.

1/125 @ f9.
This is one of the first photographs where I planned the shot before taking it. I side lit the rhinopias with TTL on one strobe and set the other strobe to 1/8 and put it above the subject.

I played a game of hide and seek to get this shot. It's a blow to the ego to be outsmarted so many times by an animal smaller than your hand.
