Coral Block with Sun
And another rock full of soft and hard corals with many orange anthias. Usually I shoot with 1/250s exposure and use the f-stop for choosing the brightness of the water surface and the sun. The intensity of flash determines the brightness of the foreground. — EXIF: Nikon D200; Δt=1/250 s; f=10.5 mm; f/7.1; ISO 200; 2014-05-31 5:01:45

Coralblock in Backlight
And another block of corals in backlight with the sun. I probably should have repositioned the strobes to the left and right when shooting in portrait mode. There's a long shadow across the coral and it's illuminated from below. So many things to think about when underwater. — EXIF: Nikon D200; Δt=1/250 s; f=10.5 mm; f/8.0; ISO 200; 2014-05-31 5:12:34

Three Men on a Icehole
Before one can go ice diving, one has to cut a hole in the ice. A triangular shape is the best for getting in and out of the water. Due to the mild winter the ice was only 20-30 centimeters thick.
