Hi All, just been messing on photoshop with some of my old photos taken with a Sea & Sea MX-10 and other 35mm film cameras, and some of my 'almost good' pics taken digitally. The problem with these pics is that while they might be of interesting subjects, the quality of the photos themselves...

Just been going through my pics taken at Iboih Beach, Pulau Weh, Sumatra in May 2008. I spent a good amount of time snorkelling, getting used to the camera and all that, so here are a few pics I took. At the time I thought not necessarily spectacular subjects, but when you get back home...
