Malapascua trip photos

Hi all,

Here are my latest photos from Malapascua (Philippines). The visibility was in general pretty poor. A lot of suspended particles and plankton. Not very successful, but back in a month.

Comments and criticism are as usual very welcome.

HOLY WOW BURGERZZZ!!! there were some shots in there that really made my jaw drop!

Great job!

Looking great Alex! Were these shot with your D300? I'm curious too about the super macro shots. Were you using a screw on diopter of some kind to get the shots of the little gobie faces? I didn't get a chance to look at the complete set. For some reason the site is loading very slowly.

Thank you for sharing!

Hi thanks a lot. Yes I used a D300 with an Anthis close-up lens. I hope to receive a Subsee magnifier soon. I ordered it after I came back from that trip but it is not in stock at the moment.

I really found the poor visibility to be very challenging and using a 105 lens didn't really help. I had to modify even my strobes configuration because of the amount of backscatter. Anyway good experience.
