Brilliant shots, I agree #2 is a definate saleable image in my opinion, just the sort of thing for a tourist brochure.

Magnificent colours Les.

What sort of distances were you working with, considering you didn't have a heck of a lot of reach with those lenses ??

Matt.

- 7D & battery grip, 40D & battery grip, 17-55mm 2.8, 100-400mm L IS USM, Manfrotto 055 & 488 RC2, 3 (55mm) ext tubes.
- Powershot A540 and underwater housing.

6 inches :)

Seriously, I took a couple of shots (not shown here) with a 12mm on a FF body.

This may give you an idea of the range.

I really like the one with the fish in the mouth. Pictures turned out great, so sharp they look almost fake!
