You have made a nice job of those. It is INCREDIBLY difficult to take good shots on a wide angle of view in the eastern gulf because of water colour. My whole collection of UW stuff does not contain a single wide angle eastern gulf shot as I have never been able to pull one off. Its even harder when snorkling as the angle of view is always down rather than the preferred up.

They also seem to be ambient light shots with no flash - another technical difficulty.

Considering the massive technical difficulty you have made a good job of it!! Congratulations.

Tthe fish are both parrotfish. the little orange, blue and white "dots" you can see in the second picture are actually worms called christmas tree worms.

Yeah, it was a wonderful trip and I just had a cheap underwatercamera. So, I was also impressed that they are better than they look like. Thanks for the explanation of the underwater-seaworld, I had no idea how all this stuff is called...
