Diving Pictures

[sphelps]

I went diving in the Dominican a few weeks ago, thought I'd share some pictures. All the dive sites were located just outside of Bayahibe in La Romana.

I shoot without a strobe so I use a large aperture so please excuse the limited DOF.

Starting off with some brain corals (most common)

Thanks guys, I forgot one more pic worth sharing.

It's a bright orange seahorse, sorry the pic sucks because it was in a cave making it impossible to get a side shot. I wanted to reposition the guy but I figured the divemaster might get a little mad, I think it was his best friend.

Very nice! I love those Diploria brains. It's too bad that there's zero access to them for the hobby, they seem plentiful enough like the gorgs but I suppose the restrictions are better off in place and better just to respect them. Gives us an excuse to want to travel to these places and see them in their own habitat I suppose.

Thanks for the share. What housing do you use for your camera?
