Hello all.

I was searching my boxes of photos today and came accross some of my pictures from trips I took to the Carribean. I thought I'd share some with you. I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I enjoyed taking them.

A nice 'Cuda

I took several shots of this bad boy. After the last one I guess he'd had enough because he came out of his lair and toward me and I didn't stick around to find out if he was freindly or not.:eek:

Actually the first shot of him is the LAST one I took. As I quickly backed away his gaping mouth was about 2 feet from my mask !
It was EXCITING to say the least !:)

That's too cool JP! That pic of the barracuda makes me want to get my pole and try to hook him. LOL... try to fight a fish while scuba diving. :p :D

a second Very Cool.

Did you swim with a group?
What type of camera did you use? Don't they make a disposable camera you can use underwater?

If so I'll try to get one and take some pics of the tamer stuff down at the lake.

Thanks,
sargent

Hi Sargent,
Yes I was with a group of divers at the time. Although, when I snapped most of the pics I was off by myself. It's tough to get good shots when there are 6 or 8 divers milling around stirring up the bottom.
I rented a nice 35 mm Nikonos underwater Camera. It worked very well as you can see. :)
They do make disposable underwater cameras that are very reasonable. Look for them in camera shops. Heck, I bet K-mart, Wal-mart, Target, or Meijers would have them. I was just about to suggest that you try one. It's too cool to have pics of your underwater adventures. Good luck.
