| A juvenile angel fish at that! Hard to spot; hard to photograph. I love all of the shots. I love to "part the fish" when swimming in a school of the little things - you know - darting your arm out to make them swim in one direction or the other?

"Herding Minnows" by DD, sounds like a great book title!
A trumpet fish caught out in the open, still trying to camouflage itself with matching colors.

Really wonderful pictures. Stop by the cart please and remind me what kind of camera you got? I was in the water the other day and really wished I could be taking pictures of waves from the backs of them...I'm still into *above* water pics but I think my camera in a baggie is too risky!

MJ,
What kind of a camera do you have? There are some pretty good "baggie" products out there. Check out http://www.aquapac.net/usstore/erol.html and http://www.ewa-marine.de/index.php?id=6. I bought the Aquapac last summer, but it didn't work out well for my SLR; the bag got in the way of the lens too often for my liking and I returned it. If you have a smaller or "semi"-SLR, it might work for you. As far as underwater/snorkeling cameras go, I have an Olympus 770SW. I really like the results Hillman is getting with his camera!

Hillman is doing excellent photography...but he couldn't do it if he wasn't getting out there on a regular basis, and I respect the hell out of that, and that he shares it with us? How lucky are we?
I know about some of the *baggie* products...just thought if I got a relatively inexpensive waterproof so I could take pics from IN the water but above it, that might be a nice alternative.
I'll be continuing to research, thanks!!!
