Bali - underwater wide-angles

Had a holiday in Bali recently (bit of surfing, bit of diving, lots of eating and relaxing). Sharing some wide-angle underwater shots - the manta rays were great, too bad we missed out seeing the mola-mola (oceanic sunfish) though.

Great shots. What camera, housing and lens were you using? The first two look a little over sharpened on my screen.

Thanks Andrew. Using a Sea&Sea DX-1G compact (it's basically a rebadged Ricoh GX-100), shot with the wide-angle conversion lens on the front of the housing with one Inon Z-240 strobe. Yeah, flickr tends to sharpen the downsized images again - need to remember to not sharpen as much when I post onto flickr.
