Thank you, the underwater world is amazing and has a few more challenges when taking pictures. Leave for Solomon Islands in a few weeks, be sure to check back in December

good luck on your trip. Most of my diving is well behind me now.Ispent 4 years living and diving in Saudi Arabia. The red
sea was great. Safe journey and clear waters. :D

Thanks evenic, at 67 I'm closing in the end of my diving career in swift current. So diving all the Pacific destinations in my retirement before retiring to calm boring waters in the Caribbean

Thanks for the great photos Critter-hunter, I just hit 66 last week and heading for a dive trip to the keys this week , hope to get some great pics. Just added another YS-D1 to my arsenal , I agree I was in the caymans in Feb and the reefs are getting kinda lackluster and colorless. The lion fish keep getting the little guys and the humans are wiping out the rest..Happy Diving!

Let me know where in the keys you dive. I've never tried it because I thought the vis was poor and reef not much. But many from Indiana drive down on a long weekend (I dislike long drives), so never tried it.

Been to Grand Cayman 3 times and thought the same thing, not much swimming on the reef. Just signed up for third trip to Little Cayman!. I'm enjoying that side better.....

Yes I agree with Little Cayman, been there a couple times and loved Bloody Bay. The only hassle is the puddle jumper going over, your dive gear and camera can arrive late that night or next morning. Enjoy and post some pics

Hey Scubadoo, just noticed your location Central Indiana. I'm in the woods near Mooresville. Which dive shop do you use in Indy ?

I'm in Frankfort so the closest one used to be Midwest scuba when he was on the north side of indy, it's a little farther for me to Avon now but I still go there.

These photos bring back wonderful memories of Grand Cayman and expecially my favorite Cayman Brak. We went aroung Brak and also got to Bloody Bay. A wonderful part of the World to dive.
