Thought I'd share my entries from the Layang Layang Underwater Photo Challenge in July.

Comments welcome

Leander,

Great shots - I especially like the dark water wide angle.

I didn't know we are related either - pretty cool!

Cheers

Thanks James

I was happy with that shot too - it was a real lighting challenge !

The winners and a short write up will be on the front page soon...

aw Mike ... that's no fun - no dishing the photos, no embarrasing moments, no sledging of the suicidal frenchmen, no dirt on the judges ... no fun at all

Huge Congratulations Leander - they all rock!

Must have been a challenge to avoid backscatter on that whip coral shot and your macros are superb as usual.

Thanks Anthony

I'm chuckling because for the whip coral was I was adjusting my strobes by feel ... when I had my shot and swam away I looked at my strobes ... they were in positions you wouldn't believe for no backscatter I like the effect ... so thanks for the positive feedback ... think I'll keep working at it

All macro this trip I took with my new 105 ... what a change after soooo many years with a 60!

cheers

Leander

Gorgeous!

#3 and #5 are outstanding.

I like what you were trying with the squid shot. Well done on all counts.
