You looking at me?

Shot with a Canon 300D in an Ikelite housing and using a single 125 strobe at False Entrance divesite, Osprey Reef, Coral Sea aboard the Nimrod Explorer. The shot was heavily cropped, and it was sheer luck the the focus pinged this shrimp. Apart from a crop, levels were adjusted, as well as a bit of saturation. A little tidying up completed the picture. Photocomp February '05 - Open

Giant Moray

by Mark Thompson

This shot was taken at Pixie's Gardens In North Queensland last November, using a Canon 300D in an Ikelite housing using a single 125 strobe. Was shot in raw, with tinkering done in Photoshop. Apart from the usual levels, saturation, etc., this shot was cropped and a bit of tidying up was done. Photocomp February '05 - Open

Just got my new colours.

by Mark Thompson

Taken with Canon 300D in Ikelite housing using standard 18-55 lens and single Ikelite 125 strobe. Whilst only a small specimen (looks as if the little fella has just gained it's adult colours) it is still absolutely glorious. He tried to hide in a cave, but I found him. Three shots taken. This one I prefer due to the back lighting and the angle of the fish (the others are a more normal position). Photocomp Feburary '05 - Open

Playing in the bubbles...

by Tiffany

This was the last photo I took for the day before the memory card became full - lucky! These beautiful anemone fish were snapped at Hopkinson Reef off Townsville, North Qld on Sat 12/02/05. The camera used was a Sony 5.1 megapixel Cybershot DSC-P93 with no additional strobes or colour filters. Photocomp February '05 - Novice

I think that this is a Jungle Perch. I have colour corrected the image to try and give you a better look. Taken at the Mosman River, QLD.

Baby Lion Meets Giant Clam

by Chris Jones

The only juvenile lionfish I've ever seen and he was flirting around the edge of a 1.3 metre long blue Giant Clam. I was using a Nikonos V with a removable closeup kit over a 35mm lens. Light was supplied by twin SB105 strobes. This was the last frame on the roll and was taken on snorkel in Turtle Bay on 3rd Sister, Tongue Reef off Cairns, QLD. Shot is upside down.
