For once I took my camera and wetsuit to our summercottage. Now you can see why I prefer tropical waters :D

Nice sunbursts and I really like the first over/under shot!

cheers guys and girls!
If only I'd taken polarized filter off before housing my camera :D It doesn't help u/w photos that much anyway. Was quite confused when my cam locked down as I went for max zoom... well next weekend I'll try with better luck and no filters. Water was so murky that there wasn't much more than sunbursts to shoot. It also helped that I had way too much weight on my belt. Sitting in the bottom was quite easy :D

Just wonderful kapula, I only just discovered this thread.
The sunbursts are all wonderful, settings used??
I always have a bit of trouble in trying to freeze the rays of the sun.

Love the over/under shots and shallow DOF macro shots :).

Thanks Jam!
I used p-setting as I was so unbalanced snorkeling and trying to lean on my back shooting upwards. In some shots I did use manual w/b but as I was so shallow it didn't really matter. I think murky water helped in this case :)
