In case anyone wonders why I am somewhat bored with diving/shooting in Culebra, this is it!

Was "Under the Sea with Al Giddings" on PBS in Atlanta last night?  I almost called you.

And, if I may be so lippy, Debbie's stuff is extremely well executed and intuitive.  I always enjoy looking at repeat National Gs, video and magazines, and I realize what a difference a year's technology makes, in terms of focus, clarity and color saturation.  While we all may live to be a thousand and never witness a cuttlefish embryo, I'll put Debbie's composition up with the best.  Laurie's and MJ's too, though I've yet to see their undersea stuff.  Some have the eye, and I'm happy to know them.:cool:

Trust me, if it was a contest and MJ was shooting underwater, she'd win hands down, but thanks for the compliments.

The scuba gear came back from servicing today (it took quite some abuse last trip), and so we are ready to go again. Now if we can only find the time!

Doug - I checked my local listings for the Al Gidding's show, and it doesn't appear to be playing here. I'll keep a watch out for it, as it looks very interesting.

No contest Debbie! I'll leave the underwater to you and Hillman and others of your tribe - I'd be drowning saying OH! Look! Glub glub glub. I am wondering what a cuttlefish egg omelet tastes.....oh never mind (that WAS bizarre and amazing)

Thanks back atcha!
