"Starry Stingray Splash"!
No Photoshop
Over-under at Stingray Sandbar, Grand Cayman
Soaring Manta
Taken at the Kittiwake, Grand Cayman
Leech headshield slug shot with a +15 diopter 105mmVR lens on a d300 in inkelite housing and strobes (DS160) ON a shutter of 200 and f22 iso 400 at the kittiwake grand cayman
Fluorescing Goby - "Tie-Dye"
No color editing was done to this photo. The rainbow of colors is from shooting with my Nightsea fluorescence kit. The filters "excite" the fluorescence in the goby and coral.
"Gaudy Clown Crab"
Great marco subject one afternoon on the North Wall in Cayman.
"Goddess on her throne"
A purple crown sea goddess on the move. Shot with constant light.
'What Lies Beneath' - Southern stingrays in the shallow waters off the coast of Grand Cayman
A brightly colored starfish rests on seagrass just below the surface. I took this shot with my camera completely submerged, and utilized a Snell's window to include the sky and clouds.
"Joy"
shortlistedShortlisted!
an unlikely friendship.
'On The Lowdown' - Southern stingrays glide just over the sandbar off the coast of Grand Cayman
Just keep swimming.
"After The Dive"
We surfaced from a magical dive to this magical light.
Photographed with a small aperture so that the sun burst through the cloud with a star effect.
"Gotcha"
Bandtail Puffer Fish
The Groupers in Little Cayman are very friendly, let you get up close and personal.
Cryptic Teardrop Crab
"Racing Stripes"
A juvenile spotted drum on coral, shot with a slow shutter speed and panning.

Great creative shot
Tarpon hunting silversides
I wish the Cayman grottoes would be filled with silversides once more.
Devil's Grotto, July 2013 (the last year of big numbers)
'Spectral' - A southern stingray on the sandbar off the coast of Grand Cayman
'On One Breath' - A freediver ascends from the wreck of the Kittiwake off the coast of Grand Cayman
Colorful Ceilings
Inside the cut out in the iron shore known by local dive guides as the Ballroom.
"Big Green"
A large Green Sea Turtle makes its way over a shallow reef on the North Side of Grand Cayman.
Fantasea Red Filter
I prepared my camera with a fisheye lens, but with my extension ring on the port to create a false vignette. I was hoping for some larger marine life to utilize this effect. Perfect for when a goliath grouper--unusual for Cayman--showed up!
'Cleaning House' - The tiny eyes of pederson cleaner shrimp in the waters off of Grand Cayman
Stingray in flight
Ready to spread my wings
Southern stingray at the sandbar
