very nice
 
These pics look great! I have a Sealife DC 1200 and my pics aren't nearly as good as these (Admittedly, I'm a novice photographer and have only used my camera a few times). What am I doing wrong or not doing? You can see some of my pic on a previous thread.
 
Dmurrell61, the Dc1200 isn't as good a camera as the dc1000, it takes longer to focus so you really have to set up the shot before snapping it. Make sure you have a flash strobe, that makes all the difference and get your shots within 3 feet of the subject. Try to get the entire subject in frame and wait until you can get the pose you want from the animal. I try to sneak up on the fish and not move fast. This way they feel comfortable around me and they tend to be more photogenic.
 
I recognize that big green eel! He wouldn't come out from under the reef for me tho- was way back in there..
Davis, right?
