solomons redux

I posted a set of pictures from the solomos 05, and 07. 05 was my first digital trip. Jack and sue drahful, were great teachers. I decided to develop them in raw which I didnt know how to do at the time. I know its alot of pictures, but 2 10 day trips is 80 dives plus or minus. http://www.flickr.com/photos/vazuw

Hi Vazub,

WOW! you have some really great images, I love the split images. I want to go to the Salomon Islands too

Vazuw - Your solomons shots are lovely and really take me back (that was my first Indopacific trip and the place where I fell in love with UW imaging) - the over/under and Leru cut shots are especially nice, as is the diver photographing the anemone/fish.

Wanted to comment, when I finished the series, I saw the absolutely beautiful shot of the red gorgonian at Santa Cruz Island - nice lighting effect you achieved!!! I may have to try to imitate that (possibly Saturday)...

Best-

Allison

thanks it was fun and amazing the difference raw can make

You know you've been in the solomons too often if you can tell where most images were taken

HERESY!

Great show. Loved it.

Thanks . I realize, I want to go back again. With the right conditions, marys point, is one of my all time favorite sites. The model is my wife, who as jim c knows, was on her first trip after recovering from spinal fusion surgery at 2 levels. She is the toughest person I know.
