Yep, both photos I was using dual strobes.

Those are great shots Warren. Manta, you will not have that much ambient light in Cocos for the Hammerheads. We generally got our close encounters between 80 and 120 feet deep, although we saw a lot of Silkies in shallow water (please don't ask to see my Silky shots.) BTW, here's a helpful article by Mike Veitch over on Wetpixel:
