    First shots from Shagra

    Here is my opening gambit from the trip to Marsa Shagra with Cussy and Simon. All images are straight from camera with no post processing.

    Good stuff - am I the only person who thinks that morays are cute?

    I really like the 2nd photo on the top row with the light coming from behind the pinnacle.

    I only got back on Sunday evening after stopping off to see my kids. Since about Saturday I've not been able to venture too far from the toilet and currently feel as about as ill as I have ever felt.

    Quite an eventful trip. On the trip to Pembroke I flooded a strobe. Kevin at Aquaphot fixed it for me and I sorted my battery out. Well, lets say my handy work wasn't up to scratch and within 5 minutes in the water the battery compartment flooded again and so I was down to 1 strobe. I'm not making excuses, but I struggled all week with just one strobe.

    Here are my first offerings:

    Did we mention we saw shark??


    Excellent trip, really liked the resort but couldn't really handle the heat. Think I'll stick to green water.

    The wrasse is an excellent shot although the cutesyness of the cleaner fish kissing shot makes it my favourite.

    For the lionfish shot you always had the advantage of a decent model.

    Just managed to pop a selection of images on to photobucket, so here goes with a couple for show.



    will add a couple more later on, just starting to sort through.
