Hi -

Figured I ought to introduce myself. I'm new to diving, and have a great desire to do some UW photography. I'm in West Central Florida (Tampa area), and plan on diving mostly in the area other than the all-to-infrequent vacation. That's about it. Oh, thanks for this website, and all of you members! Ive learned alot in my short time as a lurker!

Hi Beefer!

Welcome. I have recommendation for you. Take a long weekend and head down the 4 hrs to Ft Lauderdale and wander around Reef Photo for a while. Talk to Ryan and his guys and put your hands on all the equipment. You're very lucky to have a great asset so close. Heck you might as well take your gear and get wet while your there.

Have fun,

Steve

welcome. I am new as well
