    Pretty happy with this image

    Nice little hawksbill that was one of many in the grass at Maho Bay this morning.

    Reminds me of the little guy in the "Finding Nemo" movies.

    Yep, had some issues with the o-ring that I finally got sealed enough to dive with. It didn't ever really flood the camera but it got enough moisture in it to fog it up good. A day for thE camera under a light bulb and a good cleaning and greasing of the o-ring and she was good as new. Its a pretty basic 10 mp camera and housing but its been a real tank for the last six years considering the beating it gets on dive boats and the pressures its exposed to. Most of my best images are in my head this trip though.

    I'd like to see your "mental images" of that boat Captain!

    She was hot and wore a very teeny weenie black bikini. And it was a bouncy day on the Caribbean ifyouknowwhatimeanandithinkyoudo. We had a few hot dive masters too.
    I wore sunglasses the entire two weeks of this trip, and for good reason! I like my ribs without bruises on 'em!

    Smart man! It's for that same persact purpose I used to wear those "mirror type" aviator glasses at the beach! My eyeballs would very seldom be facing the same direction my head was!

    Nice image, dude!
    If we all threw our problems in a pile, and you saw everyone else's problems-- you'd take yours back.

    That's neat Posthole. You've posted some cool underwater pics since you started diving. How many years has it been now?
