Description A Russian destroyer sunk as a reef off the island of Cayman Brac. The Tibbetts. My dive buddy swam over the deck guns on the bow of the boat. The ocean is slowly taking over the old warship.

Great shot!
as manny people allready stated, underwater pictures are great, and most of the time, better then general photography!

Ahh . . . taking pix underwater is no different then taking pix on land, you are just under more pressure.
(Sorry, bad scuba joke there)
The underwater environment does add a different background for subjects. It gives them a totally different feel.

your friend being there is awesome. the shot would have been good either way, but i like him there. were the fish already starting to use it as a reef?

The ship was sank in 1998 or 1999 and there are fish all over the place. I really like having Jack there, it really gives you an idea of the size of the ship. I will have to add another 'aerial' shot of the ship so everyone can see how expansive it is.

yeah, i think thats part of what i liked, but I couldn't figure out the words for it. size comparison. I'm not feeling great today so the day has been full of brain farts.

It happens.
I tend to like having people in my pix, usually. Or atleast some critter. It's a work-related thing, I guess.

really? and i usually hate having people in my shots. especially landscape stuff. when i went to the grand canyon, i was there, waiting for people to move so i could get the right shot and my friend was the opposite she has like have heads, arms and a lot of pictures of my butt in her photos. she hates taking a pic without someone in it.

Well, I agree with you for a landscape shot. People can kinda ruin it unless you are trying to take an environmental portrait of someone or 'rove' you have been there.

Diving is so cool, it opens up the other 75 percent of the planet to discover!
