Pictures improve as the dives go on so bare with it, still playing with a new camera.

Enjoy and please let me know what you think.

Dive Day 2 - Used my fish-eye lens for the first time today... pretty happy with it so far.

Some old oil barrels from a ship wreck in the 80's. They never bothered removing the barrels or the wreck.

Clownfish and BTA but notice the two clams, they were on top if a little peak created by a brain coral. Don't know how they got up there but was kinda cool.

Dive 2+3 - Considered 1 of the top 10 sites in the world and had some great photo ops

Now remember that I'm using a fisheye for all of these so for these next 4 shots I'm almost touching the subject.. maybe 2" or 3" at most
