Hi there and welcome!
As you're 'local' how about coming along to our next meeting:
Bristol U W Group
...it's this Tuesday and you'd be very welcome.
A good mix of experienced and newish photographers and lots of advice available!
If you'd like to come send me a message.

I'd recommend the Bristol UW Photog Group, too. I always enjoy my visits there - very friendly and welcoming lot. Talented bunch too.
I am speaking there at the March meeting - if you are there say 'Hi'.

Indeed; two of our members were immediately behind Alex's second place in the Annual British Society of Underwater Photographers 2007 Annual Open Portfolio - and one or more of the Bristol group invariably appear in the other BSoUP annual competitions. We do have some exceptional talent - but also plenty of enthusiastic 'aspirers'!!!!
Looking forward as always to Alex's presentation on March 11th.

As a ttal coincidence i had already been to one BUPG evening and tonight was my second. Hadnt been here for a couple of days so was a bit confused when ralphy introduced himself as the guy from wetpixel. Now I am all caught up though.
I will be there in March Alex so i will make sure i say hi.

Good to meet you last night & I hope you enjoyed Alan James' presentation.
UK diving is on the agenda for this year, I'm re-locating to Devon (I'll almost be a neighbour of Peter Rowlands!) so no reason not to get into the sea there.
See you again in March.
