Hi there, my name is Simon, I was introduced to this site from WetPixel (polyroly) and signed up as I always like new viewpoints. I am from the snowy north but only (so far) dive in the sunny south - so no dry suit experience yet. We have just over 300 dives, recreational depth and mostly land based but also on a couple of liveaboards.

 

I try to keep my kit small due to travel baggage limits and I am always trying to make my kit smaller - it  gets bigger. I am using a Sony a6400 and a SaltedLine housing mostly using the 90 Macro, with a single Z330 and a self designed and printed Snoot that incorporates both Optical and Fiber interfaces. DIY is a sickness. Underwater, I love finding small worlds and so I love Macro - also why I love photographing mushrooms and lichens on our forest walks. I am drawn to the inconspicuous subjects. Microscopic dioramas cause me to smile.

Hey Simon

 

Excellent to have you with us. Welcome! I'm sure you will see lots of familiar name short from Wetpixel.

 

 

I have been diving since 1971. My most frequent dive locations are southeast Florida and Cozumel but I occassionally go other places when budget allows. My present camera is a Sony 6400 in a Fantasea housing with two Inon 240Z strobes and a Fantasea WWL.

HI awe. Welcome to Waterpixels! We hope you really like this new forum.

 Wow, you sure got friendly with that octopus on that Cozumel 6-2019 dive! Great shots!

Love that intro, what a sense of humour. Nice to e-meet a fellow Canadian SFEgr
