Guys, trust me - it's not always about how good you are. I think I'm a decent underwater shooter and a great storyteller, but there are a ton of people doing what I'm doing that are better than me on the technical side that don't get the gig because they're dicks to work with. I can't tell you how many shoots I've been assigned and then been told afterwards that it wasn't so much that I was a good shooter, but that I was a pleasure to have on-location.
Get good at your craft, yes. Always. But never, ever give into u/w imaging snobbery. It'll be your downfall quicker than a bad air fill.

Steve, I have learned never to question why you choose what settings. I just wanted to publicly let you know that I tried out your Vimeo settings and they're amazing. Thanks again for posting this.
Now, I just have a bunch of stuff to re-upload now. =)
