    A week aboard the Bahamas Aggressor

    Excellent summary and precisely my experience. Again, I'm not saying it was BAD. I had a good time. I just have to really be careful with where I spend my dive vacation dollars and with this in mind, I probably wouldn't do Bahamas again. I can go other places with significantly better diving...

    Rigging Your DSMB- A New Take On An Old Problem

    I guess. Seems like it's just adding complication to me. All I do is wind the last few feet of line so they're on one side of the reel. This leaves the holes on the other side open enough for me to just clip the double-ender through one of the holes. I've never had it come off accidentally.

    Problems with dome on Ikelite housing

    OK, I had this exact setup except it was a G12 instead of a G16. Here are a few things you need to know: - Inside the lip of the WD-4 sits an O-ring. This needs a thin coat of grease. Not exactly related to your problem but keeping this O-ring lubricated will make the next part MUCH easier...

    For Sale Canon G12, Ikelite housing, strobe arm, TTL cable, extras

    Hey Anthony, Yea. I can ship it. Someone else was was interested in it for a bit and I checked shipping to Minnesota. It was $17. I would think Michigan wouldn't be much different. -Charles

    Oceanic ProPlus 3 DC

    I don't think there is a way. As new dives are added in, the oldest ones are pushed out.

    A week aboard the Bahamas Aggressor

    So this is the problem with a description from someone who's dove the Caribbean for decades vs someone who's new. For a new diver, yes, the Bahamas is just fine. Once you get out and see Cozumel, Roatan, Turks, Cayman, Belize, Bonaire and Grenada your perspective will change. I'm not at all...

    processing software? what do you use?

    That's exactly right. In fact, there's a very good YouTube video posted right here in the Photography section. I've been using LR and PS for years and I still learned something new from it. There are loads of videos and tutorials on how to use LR & PS for underwater shots. Take some time and...

    processing software? what do you use?

    Lightroom and Photoshop together. Lightroom is an outstanding photo organization system that has a pretty good editor built-in. Photoshop is probably the best photo editing software made, but it has no inherent photo organization system. The two together are incredibly powerful and well...

    A week aboard the Bahamas Aggressor

    Yes, that plan is still in place. The current Bahamas Aggressor boat will be retired/sold. The current Cayman Aggressor IV is in Cuba being refit. Anyway, Aggressor didn't do anything wrong on this trip and I can't say the trip sucked. I can only say I wouldn't do it again. There's better...

    Video Tutorial - Editing in U/W Photos in Lightroom

    I'd love to see another video where you work through a macro shot. The editing there is very different than the whale one. Thanks! -Charles

    A week aboard the Bahamas Aggressor

    Yea, I'm going through my photos now and they certainly make the trip look better than it was. There were some reefs in fairly decent shape. The overall lack of color and fishlife was very disappointing though. We were lucky to see a cowfish or a trunkfish on any given dive. We didn't see a...

    A week aboard the Bahamas Aggressor

    Gang, Just got back from a week aboard the Bahamas Aggressor. Mostly diving Exuma and the marine park. The Aggressor: Well it's always pretty much great aboard the Aggressor boats. That said, this is the oldest boat in the fleet and it shows. As I understand it, this boat will be retired...

    Photos from Grenada

    I'm not aware of any shore diving. I was at True Blue and there definitely wasn't any there. I was diving with Aquanauts. The diving in Grenada is actually quite good. The water is plenty warm and the reefs are healthy.

    Subnautica - Anyone else playing this?

    It certainly isn't a easy game. It takes a LOT of time to explore and find everything you need.

    Subnautica - Anyone else playing this?

    Yes, I realize this is "TV & Movies" but this seemed like the best place to post this. Anyway, I've been playing Subnautica for the last couple of weeks. It's a LOT of fun and there really aren't that many underwater games. Specific points: - Whoever designed this clearly knows something...
