Good morning friends, last week I did my first underwater blue-light photo with a tripod and I know most of you are wondering why?? These rare, endangered Staghorns don’t glow as brightly under blue-light like the star corals or brain corals, making it almost impossible to get a shot with my normal camera and flashes.…
Good morning friends, I often tell folks that a some fish can be spotted from a long ways away as is the case with today’s photo showing a very colorful Queen angelfish. I spotted this beauty while photographing the submersible which was quite a distance from the reef out in the deep blue.…
Hi all, we had such a crazy day here yesterday…. I was in the water three times with our submersible and went home completely wiped out. For me it’s not the three dives that is so tiring but the running around in-between dives doing photoshop and getting my gear and camera ready to go for the next run, the day goes by super fast! …
Good morning friends, I have a glowing section of brain coral for you all this morning as seen under blue light late at night. Most of the coral are very fluorescent especially the mountainous star corals and these brain corals come in at a solid second place.…
Hi friends, I have a beautiful, and I mean beautiful, outcrop or colony of rare, endangered Elkhorn coral for you all today that I shot a few weeks ago on a very calm and clear day. As many of you already know this coral grows only in shallow water so you can imagine all the problems associated with that.…
Good morning friends, I went for a quick night dive with my blue-light setup to find and photograph these rare, endangered Staghorn corals. Aimee went with me but didn’t get in the water, she only helped me get in and out.…
Good morning friends, I have an old colony of rare, endangered Staghorn coral for you today that has new growth popping out over the old colony. What I find interesting about this is, I thought it was all dead because the last time I saw this colony it looked brown and black and was all covered in moss; amazing how it found a way to hold on and now has all this new growth.…
Good morning friends, I’m staying in the Doral area here in Miami and folks it is beautiful! I drove out to the Everglades which took around 5 hours but didn’t find much to do. I drove into some beautiful little remote lake areas but every 20 feet there was a “beware of alligators” sign so I did what any smart tourist would do, stayed in the car and just kept driving.…
Good morning all, I jumped in the water 1st thing this morning to photograph the small but nice brain corals that we have growing in just a few feet of water in our lagoon on the side of the walls. I did this in case the water warms up and the corals start to bleach, then I can show you a before and after photo.…
Good morning all, I had a request for a photo of myself taking a photo of the submersible and it just so happens I have one. Last month when the Sirenas Group was here collecting sponges for medical research they had a videographer with them that snapped this cool shot of me doing what I do almost daily.…
