Seahorses and Friends

My main underwater photo setup has some technical issues right now, so I am using the Olympus point& shoot I won in a photo contest last year. The results aren't too bad either. All pictures are from Chowder Bay, Sydney, Australia.

Seahorse:

Another nice seahorse:

A pipefish, taken without a flash. Hence less light, hence low f-stop and the narrow depth of field.

    He is probably surprised that I am swimming around with such a small camera.

    I love that first seahorse portrait. Agree with the others about his/her mood.

    Terrific work.
    I'm sure you would be blown away with the Leafy Sea Dragons we have just south of Adelaide.
    My opinion does not necessarily make it true. What you do with my opinion is entirely up to you.
