Well been gone for a while. Went to Bonaire and flooded my camera. :shock: :shock: :shock:

Oh well, at least it was insured.

Here's a few shots from before the flood.

    Those are terrific shots. The colors are so brilliant! Sorry to hear the camera didn't do so well. What type of camera/housing? How deep were you?

    A few??? Ouch!

    I flooded a d300 with a 105mm lens. I have had over 1800 camera dives with 3 partial floods and 3 total floods - always my own dumb fault. The more you dive - the more it happens. rolleyes1.gif

    Depth? ...about 12 feet. Hadn't even turned it on yet. :D

    I'd love to get out there and do some of that renowned Bonaire shore diving.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Marc, yes that Bonaire is a great place to shore dive. It was my first trip and I loved it. But you wouldn't want to travel with anyone that doesn't dive cuz there is nothing else there. I guess there is a wild nightlife thing but I never looked into that.
