Recommended Posts

We were skunked again today, but I managed to snap this photo of Eric in action:

I'm trying to figure out what part of Eric isn't included . . .

Was that with the 5D or 7D? I am guessing the 7D since it has quicker AF.....

OK, this might make this page really wide. Sorry!

 

3D (cross-fused) video tour of Isla Mujeres from our golf cart, taken with dual Canon 5D Mark II cameras and Canon 15mm fisheye lenses. Special thanks to Sterling Zumbrunn for his help, and to Tony Wu for the loan of a 15mm lens. The color in the videos is different because Tony's lens is much older.

Guys, great report - interesting read - tough trip isn't it - hard on the legs and those sails are hard to find. I was there for 10 days last year and we had encounters on only 5 of the days.

 

Here is a link to some of the snaps...

Great shots and video, you guys that get in the water with this amount of danger must have balls of steel.

Hehe! Thanks ... I did a couple a tours of the island in carts. I let a young Chez Chick drive one day and she blew up the engine (just coincidence). Hehe, so damned cute no one cared!
