Monthly Challenge - August 207
I think these months are getting shorter - It seems like no time at all since I set the last challenge.
OK, so this month I think I'd love to see some Wide Angle Scenics Once again, I don't think I'll be submitting anything myself as I'm still travelling a lot or have other stuf to do when back home - I haven't got wet for weeks now and nothing planned for ages. Something drastic needs to be done! Anyway, have fun with the challenge for those that can get to dive. TIM

So Tim sets wideangle while I'm on a trip concentrating on macro, typical! But I did stick the fisheye on for one dive, so here are three photos from St Abbs:

I like the Urchin and the Wrasse. If the shutter had went a second earlier and the Wrasse was top left, diagonal to the Urchin, it would have been a cracking composition

gradually working my way through my shetland pics - these two were taken at Noss Head - fantastic diving, caves, walls as you can see covered in stuff- not as technically good as Robs but really give you an idea of what it is like

You know Jane, it's a cliched thing but I think if had added a Diver in those photos that would have really helped. Although, like me, I think you prefer to have photos sans-Diver?
The dive site looks absolutely beautiful. I'd love to see the same photo with just ambient light as well - can you just pop back and try that for me?  Tim
