Pastel paradise.  One of the things I love about diving is that it tends to occur in places where it is nice to be when you are not diving. Case in point, this is the view to the east from Rum Point, Grand Cayman.

A sailboat passes by Cayman Kai, on the North shore of Grand Cayman.  The really small white dots on the horizon line are dive boats on the North wall.  A beautiful place to dive.  A beautiful place to

Dont know what this is. Couldn't find it in any of the books. Beautiful coloring. Looks like a small stonefish/scorpionfish by its coloring. Shark nosed goby visible for size comparison. Help welcomed on ID'ing it. Grand Cayman.

As a rule, Photoshop's panorama function is easy to use and the results are very good. This time....not so good. This is the actual output. Maybe I spilled some wine on the computer?

Pederson's shrimp. Grand Cayman. Common, but after I looked at the shot topside, I saw the anemone in the background. Just managed to achieve a soft transillumination with the strobe that looks really nice.

A lizard proudly poses atop the coral overlooking Conch Point along the West side of Grand Cayman. This little guy really knew how to strike a pose.

An arrow crab and his roomies, the brittle stars, living in a sponge. Kinda has the whole "Sponge Bob" theme. Managed to get my 105 Nikon to focus on them and a strobe on them, as well.

Chris Alpers, our divemaster, used a magnifying glass for us to view this little guy. Inset shows a magnified view. I think this is a Chelidonura berolina. Input welcome.

Hanging with the divemaster doing a safety stop. He blew bubble-rings. The rings floated up and crossed the line holding a "sausage". As they rolled up, they wound up the line. Way cool.

Kaleidoscopic image made from brightly colored coral. Lots of detail in the coral makes for an intricate pattern.

A kaliedoscopic imagemade from sponges and fish scales. The saturation was then bumped up. I grew up in the 70's and would have proudly hung this on the wall for viewing under the black light. Physchadelic man!

Anchor seen in Turks and Caicos while diving aboard the Aggressor live aboard. Popeye would be proud, although the heart-shaped encrustation might detract from the "manliness" a bit. ( insert Popeye laugh here.)

Kaliedoscopic image from colorful sponges and corals. The central patterns evoke a "Persian Rug" look, all from nature!
