Dive pics from my dive trip in Negril Jamaica
Posted by alfred on August 10, 2008I’m not a professional diver or photographer and doing both of them at the same time has proven to be difficult for me but I am getting a little better. the first 100 pictures I took with my dive camera were pretty bad and I was starting to think they would never get any better but here are some of those that you can at least see something in the picture. Wish me luck on more dive trips with my new friends at Negril Scuba Center.
A mated pair of coral banded shrimp in some rocks on my shallow water dive trip. The Jamaican waters were kinda cloudy on our dive trip and visibility was not ideal but we had so much fun it didn’t really seem to bother anyone.
This large snail was pretty easy to snap a picture of and it came out a bit more clear than most of the other diving photos I have taken. I do think a better lighting system with my camera would realy help things. I guess I may need to look into one of those if I ever want those magazine looking photographs. Probably need one of those super magazine style cameras to go with it but that cut into my dive budget and would cost me a trip this year.
Thats the best picture I have of any of the wonderful tropical fish I have seen while diving in Negril Jamaica. These fish are so vibrant and colorful but the camera and conditions do not do them justice. you really do have to see it live in order to appreciate the beauty of it all. This Juvenile French Angel swims around a piece of brain coral as it trys to avoid me and the camera. It kept peeking in and out from under the coral and this was the better of about 15 shots I took of the same fish. I tried to entice it close to me but this was about the best I could get from most of the fish I came across on these trips. Seems I see more stuff when I don’t have my camera ready but I try to remember to bring it with on every dive trip I go on.
Anyone else have some dive pictures from Negril they want to share?
