Bonaire 2009
My first dive trip after I was certified. Not a bad start: "Diver's Paradise," which would be Bonaire, N.A. (Look it up.)
I didn't know what I was doing for the first couple of days of underwater photography; the last couple of days are much better than the earlier stuff. Stick with it or skip ahead (recommended.)
Every pic was uploaded - un-Photoshopped - so filter (and discover) the crap on your own.
And I spent a couple of grand to take pics (above and below), and GD.... I'm gonna use it!

Nice view of the dive boat up above as the sun is coming up and the non-nocturnal fish are awakening.
Since it was my last dive of the trip, I decided to record a long segment of video of what a typical dive is like through my eyes (and ears). Since the sun was just coming up, the washed out colors look the same to us as you see here - the real color is only seen with more light. Also, there's the sounds. You can hear my breathing (as well as the conservative dive computer alarm), but there's all those clicking noises, too: that's the fish feeding on the coral all around you.
