Well here are some early attempts at underwater photography, the more I look at the pictures the more I think we need to work on taking better pics. It appears that the best pics are when the water is

  • very clear
  • close to surface
  • very close to subject matter

All of which are highly variable, I think shooting with a flash will deal with a lot of these issues, but its a major battery drain so we will see .

The images are displayed using light box javascript, which I know used to not work with the safari browser, its the new version though so it should work. Of course if it doesn’t just use firefox.

Well in a world where everyone has a blog/myspace/facebook/homepage I figured I should finally set up something. Its kind of ironic I guess me not having a webpage when there are literally thousands of websites out there using designs created by me. I found this old domain in my godaddy account , and figured it would perfect for a personal site on Key West, fishing, spearfishing etc, also a place to play around and show some of the photos my girlfriend and and I have taken underwater, although with the conditions recently it should be called shallow-green-water.com.

The design is almost done I just have to mess around font colors and a couple more icons, then hit the wordpress plugin directory and see what toys I can add to the blog. Actually pretty fun way to spend a day designing for myself for once, and hopefully with a few tweaks and edits, I’ll use this design for some other projects.
