#330184 Pool Fashion Shooting

The photo's of your model make me say, 'nice' or 'very nice'.  The photo of your daughter made me smile.  So the model touched my sense of appreciation but your daughter touched me deeper.  No matter how much we try the artistic, the joy of a child is hard to beat.

Marrying your model is quite an expensive method!




#327559 Sailfish Photos from Isla Mujeres

Posted by diver dave1 on 09 March 2013 - 11:42 AM

Starting posting photo's from the recent Sailfish Photo adventure.

So far, there are 3 series posted.  Shots are 0.2 seconds apart in each series.

In the first series, the Sailfish has lunch in his jaws.  Easier to see on some shots than others.

#315263 Underwater photography - The professionals

Posted by diver dave1 on 26 August 2012 - 05:36 AM

Quite some yrs ago, my family vacationed at a resort that had a play performed.  Those waiting our tables stopped long enough to perform the play as we ate.  My young daughter was impressed by the play and told me she wanted to be an actress.  I told her to look carefully at what she saw.  Their jobs were waiting the tables, their passion and hobby was the play.  I told her to never confuse her hobby with her income.  Be an actress for a hobby all you want, but have a job that pays the bills.
That speech seems to fit here as well.


#312156 Playa del Carmen / Cozumel / Isla Mujeres (or another whale shark place)

For Cenote diving at Playa, I would contact WP member NCmermaid.  She and hubby run a dive shop at Playa that I used.  They were great.  They can also arrange a tour of Tulum.  Cannot speak about other Mayan site tours with them.

Some type of index for positive dive shop feedback and negative shop feedback might be useful for this site.  Rather turns it into a diveadvisor type of arrangement.  Many of us have had great trips...many terrible service.  So far, search and read is the only way I know of to sort it out.
Thanks for adding your comments regarding places to avoid.  Considering diving that area later in the yr and will use your advice.
