Sailfish Madness - Isla Mujeres

Back from 4 insane days in Isla Mujeres with Mauricio Handler. Totally lucked out on the weather, the week before was a mess. Swam our butts off....

Here are a few pics

Great images! Really like the B&W!

Loving them all Jeff but number 4 is very special to my eye! Congrats on a great trip, I hope you had a margarita for me.

Cheers,

Steve

The first color one is killer. Nice goin' Jeff.

Jeff, nice captures, but I think you need 36mp! LOL

Totally awesome Jeff...and like Steve like the 4th one the most

Super Stuff

Diggy

Beautiful images!!!!

Number 4 really stands out. Great shot, Jeff.

Wow! Stunning images Jeff.

Cheers,

Jim.

Awesome, thanks....gotta do that for Xmas/New Year one year, Isla Mujeres is an great town to stay too.

4 rocks!

Thanks folks; no Drew for this stuff I need 36fps not MP.

I agree #4 is the wall print of the trip.

Awesome Jeff!

I'm going be a sheep and agree that number 4 is the winner for me!

Thank you for sharing-even if it makes me jealous!

I wonder if a scooter would have allowed you to keep up better.

Indeed 4 is beautiful Baaaaaaaaaa.......

Congratulations

Would love to do a sailfish trip (Mozambique, possibly). Any tips for shooting them??

A few more that tell the story, first one's almost a caricature of the chaos

ErolE, generally I'd say a high shutter speed is the most important thing. I shot 1/320 - 1/500, ISO 400-1200. Used a single strobe just for close up fill at it's lowest setting. Lens underwater is Nikon 16-35 behind a 9" Zen dome.

really amazing shots the 4th one in the original shot and the first and second of the second lot...

not a lot more to say except amazing....

Really fantastic! Hard to not really enjoy the 4th image. The first is very nice as well.

Were you ever worried about getting stabbed?

I'm sure it's possible but with their speed and agility, they seemed to be pretty much in control of their bills at all times..
