gosh, i didnt even realise the first pic is a frog fish until you said it ...

nice photos, eric. i tried manual white balance on my last trip, results was rather pleasing on LCD, but when blown up on computer i was so dismayed sia... too washed out.. think my aperture too wide? and almost 80% of my close up pics are out of focus..

p/s: can i come down on thursday?

oceanicasia, 2nd shot very nice (different) perspective. when i look at the picture, i somehow feel like i'm a elf, or a lilliputian, looking at a HUGE mushroom..

and 3rd shot looks like a land (desert) shot.

cool..

btw for 2nd shot did u look thru viewfinder or u just angled it and estimated..

Most of the time when using the Nikonos, I don't look thru the view finder. I just use the AGAG method. Many times when things are happening UW you won't have time to look thru the view finder to compose your shot. Next time you go for a UW shoot, try shooting 1 viewing thru the finder another using the AGAG method.ok

WOW!!

The frog fish shot is FANTASTIC!!!

The sunburst from the top makes the shot extra-atmospheric...

Any more wide angle shots to share??
