Caribbean Jewels
Underwater in Roatan
This series of images were taken with a Nikon D50 in a Fantasea housing, mostly with natural light (with the exception of the coral images which were taken with a strobe flash ). Of the several hundredimages I took, learning to use the camera underwater was a challenge - and only a handful came out as I expected them to. These images are from February 2008, and I have come a long was since - but I wanted to show these images as they are good representation of what I have learned since (ie white balance, strobe flash settings, color correction, etc.) and even now some years later I still think that generally these still stand out as good underwater images.
