"The Christ of the Deep Statue" Located in the Florida Keys/Pennekamp Park. This was taken with a MX10/35mm camera, no strobe or flash. The statue has been there so long that it is covered with various fans and fire coral. Photo was taken in 2002.
A Beautiful Day for Diving! The photo was taken using a wide angle lense and natural light.Morning dive in Cozumel 12/05.
This turtle decided he was friendly and posed for this shot. I took this photo off of Playa Del Carmen in 2004. I used my Sealife Camera with a single strobe.
This Southern Stingray looks as if he would be saying " They dont see me". The Stingray was buried between the finger reefs off Ambergris Key. The photo was taken with a Sealife DC200 w/ Strobes. I was able to get several photos of this subject.
"just Checking" a very curious Reeef Shark. Many of them came so close I was glad to use my camera for a shieid. Adrenaline was high!!!!! Photo taken off Grand Bahamas Island.
This photo was taken in Cozumel in Dec of 2005, there were 2 French Angels in this hole along with 2 Queen Angels. All photo friendly.

Repetitve images of the whale seen in the center.
Face to Face: This is a combination of 3 different photos that I composed in photoshop. I added a few filters to give a more surreal effect. I used a Canon s400 digital elph with an external strobe and underwater housing.
This is a combination of three photos that I took with my Canon S400 Digital Elph. I used an external strobe. I layered them in photoshop to create my own abstract view of patterns found under the sea.
