Seaworld Underwater

Postby sheepie on Sun Dec 30, 2007 2:06 pm

We were in the Gold Coast back in November and went to Sea World (which has to be the best out of the lot of the parks up there). I've spent the last few hours going through my pics from there, and have uploaded the underwater ones here:

While not up to the standard of some underwater masters here - yes, they're noisy, and not as sharp as they could be - I am happy with them.

Appreciate your comments and highlights of any that you might like :)

I like the shark images especially this one

But my favorite pic in your collection is this one as it conveys the scale of the fish and the school with the people in it. Cool.

Leon. To be honest I think many of these are too dark which detracts from the quality of the shots you've captured and, I believe, could be rescued in PP. That said the fisheye shot is cool as is this one:

Edit: Just noticed that's the one Steve liked above!
