    Land Photo Tips?

    Thanks for the response. For clarification....for the zip lining..is it worth taking a camera along? We have never done it so I'm not sure if it is worth trying to take a camrea along. I have a few Sony DSLR's that are bigger and obviously more bulky to try and take a long. But if it is...

    Land Photo Tips?

    In July a group of us are going on the Belize Agressor and then straying in Belize for a few days. We plan to do things like the zip line, cave tubing, etc. Being that I'm an avid photographer and this is our first trip to Belize, can anyone offer any suggestions about taking a camera on these...

    Any Tropic Dancer, Palau reviews??

    I'm trying to find anyone that has gone on the Tropic Dancer in Palau. I know this is a new location for this boat but I was curious for any recent experiences. I am planning a liveaboard there next year and wanted to review a few different options. Thanks. Jeff

    Pacific Island Recommendations

    It looks like we are leaning toward a liveaboard in Palau with a few day layover in Yap. Do you know if there are any good topside sightseeing on these islands?

    Pacific Island Recommendations

    I've heard that Rangiroa has good diving. Were you island hopping that you only had two days of diving there? Do you think that one island would be good for a 10 day trip or would you recommend staying on a few of the islands?

    Pacific Island Recommendations

    For next year I am considering taking a small group of divers for a two week trip to the Pacific islands somewhere. The group are all advanced divers and seriously into photography and video. We were considering somewhere in the French Polynesia, Cook Islands or Fiji. We are looking for a...

    Galapagos Gloves and Luggage?

    No apologies needed. Obviously in different parts of the world people adapt. I'm sure if I said I was diving last weekend in 45 degree water for fun, some people would think I'm nuts. For us, it is just another excuse to get out and dive (dry of course!). Hopefully we'll see a whale shark...

    For those that just got back from Galapagos, were you able to snorkle with the penguins or was that off limits now? Jeff

    Galapagos Gloves and Luggage?

    Thanks for the resposnes. I plan on bringing a 3/5 hood and my wife already has a 2 mil jacket. I dove with the 5mil suit, hood, and gloves in 55 degree water in the quarry and I was fine after a 45 minute dive. Considering it was fall in PA, the surface temps are going to be a good bit...

    Galapagos Gloves and Luggage?

    I am heading to the Galapagos Islands at the end of December with Peter Hughes. My question is for the people that have been there, what type of gloves did you recommend? I have a pair of 2mm Kevlar gloves, which should be good for the corral and 70ish water temps. But I'm afraid that the...

    Orlando Area Suggestions

    I guess you paid your dues.....then got smart. I have an instructor friend who lived in Florida, then moved up to Central PA. It didn't take him long to get a dry suit. Obviously we question his sense of direction. But he moved back for his wife to be closer to her family, so he has a decent...

    Orlando Area Suggestions

    RAW, Nikon NES and Photoshop

    The Nikon file format was NEF not NES. I was the one writing from memory at work. Thanks. I corrected the typo. I do not have any layers, adjustment layers or anything like that. I just opened the file in Photoshop 7, made a few brightness corrections and tried to save it as a jpeg. I...

    RAW, Nikon NES and Photoshop

    I am just starting to shoot RAW with my Nikon D100. The file format is saved in .NEF which I assume is a Nikon format. I can open these files with the Nikon Viewer and edit them in Photoshop 7. I know how to convert the pictures to jpeg without any corrections using the Nikon Viewer. But...
