Steve Williams 0 Posted July 26, 2011 Really nice Alex! Please help me understand how you have the port setup. What extension are you using if any? Glad you guys had a productive trip. How did you find the environment on the beach and getting to the resort/boat? Cheers, Steve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
acuevas 4 Posted July 26, 2011 Beautiful shots. Were all the shots taken with the teleconverter? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex_Tattersall 90 Posted July 26, 2011 All the wide angle ones were, yes. I use the Zen 100mm dome for the 10-17 Tokina (DP-100-NT) and an extension ring 20 (plus the zoom gear for the Tokina and teleconverter. I was running a trip at Shark's Bay through Oonas Divers, 3 days mini-safari liveaboard to Abu Nuhas and Thisltegorm and then 4 days land based to Ras Mohammed and Tiran Straights.

Amazing light. Could you tell me how is the situation in Sharm right now? Im leaving in a couple of weeks to Shark bay (umbi village) and would like to know how is the diving now :-), crowdy?

sasdasdaf 2 Posted July 27, 2011 Wonderful shots. I love the blues in all the pics... it's really nice to see those blues in the macro shots too. Love the lionfish and blennies too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stewsmith 14 Posted July 27, 2011 Nice shots Alex. Love the lion fish yawning. It was great to dive with you, even if you do hog all the subjects. lol Stew Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

albert kok 14 Posted August 9, 2011 Nice clear shots! You must have been pretty close to the objects? Cheers, Al. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bversteegh 0 Posted August 12, 2011 Nice work Alex - that is a really nice set. I like them all - the moray caught my eye. I just tried the Bare minidome/1.4x teleconverter/10-17 Tokina for the first time on my Komodo trip - In general, I didn't get get close enough when I reviewed pictures after the dive (even though it felt like I was really close while shooting). Looks like you have it figured out. The Fix light you brought me from Taiwan when we went to Raja Ampat finally gave up this last trip - so an excuse to upgrade I guess!!
