Steve Williams 0 Posted January 22, 2009 (edited) Howdy from paradise, I'm having a blast and learning so much from Alex and all the rest of the Wetpixelians on this trip. What a pleasure it is to dive with these folks. If you've never had a chance to go to one of Alex's classes/trips you owe it to yourself to do it. Thought I'd share a shot of Alex Wednesday morning before breakfast . and one of my favorites from the snorkel with the rays; This trip is filled with incredibly gifted photographers. I have a whole new definition of a "good photo" after seeing their work. Great times, Steve Edited February 6, 2009 by Alex_Mustard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

secretsea18 0 Posted January 22, 2009 Great Shots! However, it looks a lot more like a morning pre-breakfast "walk" than a snorkel... did the water even reach your chins??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was interesting dive profile; 120 min at 4 ft. James the second crew is coming in Sat. I'll probably pass you in the airport. I'll be the guy with too much gear and a big grin on his face. Thanks Patrick and Miss Mermaid! Cheers! Steve Edited January 23, 2009 by Steve Williams Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vazuw 1 Posted January 25, 2009 Now that my caymans trip is over, a couple of comments. It was great to put faces to, and meet several wetpixelians. Wow as steve said the talent on that trip was really special. As for Alex; what a special guy. A great teacher, explainer, and a truely nice guy. I will definately be better for the experience. Also thanks to steve, I'm ready to give lightroom a go. Now if that could only make me a better photographer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
