Nice Sam. was that in front of Atlantis? I found the mandarins there extremely timid and the surge we had made it nearly impossible to shoot. I had better luck in Malapascua (Lighthouse site)

Excellent Sam, love the eggs!!

Did you use the 105?

Best, Carol

Pakman,

No, it was not Atlantis house point. There are several points in Dumagetti & I took pictures at Bahura point in Dauin. I also, took mandarine pictures at light house, Malapascua & Anilao but, Bahura was the best.

Carol,

Yes, I used 105 VR + Wet diopter.

Sam

Interesting Sam, I'll have to check out Bahura next time I'm in Dauin.
