Thanks much. I was using a Canon 7D w/ Aquatica housing (Tokina 10-17 for WA, and Canon 100mm L macro), and S&S YS-110a strobes.

Absolutely stunning photos - thank you so much for sharing.

Everytime I see divers photos from there dives at Sipadan it reminds me why it is a world class dive site :blinking:

Nice shots did you use 1 or 2 YS strobes for the anemone fish shot? Ah memories for me of endless visibility and critters in Sipadan..

2 strobes...I took that with the Tokina 10-17 FE and 4" mini dome, so the dome was probably about 1" from the clownfish.

Surprisingly, vis was not great when we were there (it took quite a bit of photoshop work to clear up some of the pics).

Absolutely amazing shots, loved to see them.
I just hope I can get 1 or 2 that could approach that clarity and composition. I will be in Mabul/Sipadan in just a month, can't wait.

Thanks again for the photos.

Love the pipe-fish.

Nice pics. Can you compare the 100mm L to the regular 100mm? I'm considering both but am wondering if the L is worth the extra cash.
