Still learning

And here are the pictures from the first dive yesterday! Much better! I think I have it figured out. I am tipping the camera up just a smidgen to high, not keeping my finger on the button long enough and sometimes I don't keep it steady long enough to focus and take the picture. This results in half fish, blurry or trailing pictures of fish or badly out of focus random rock or water pictures. But at least I know. Knowing is half the battle don't you know...

Here's the thing. Once underwater I can't see the screen of my camera or the light that tells me when the picture is focused on and taken so it's point, click, hope for the best and move on. This is all being done tankless and about 10 - 15' underwater. It's a bit of a challenge. When I scuba on Monday I hope to have far better results as I won't have to continue surfacing or kick about to keep myself under and still with the tank and weights holding me down.

These are my best shots...

Queen Angelfish


Blue Tang


I have no idea what these were but they swam all around me for a little while...


I even got a little video of the queen. All hail the queen.
