Diving with Homer Simpson

Homer acting like a big celebrity that he is. NO PHOTO PLS!
Most would say, a picture tells a thousand words.

A diver would say, Picture or it didn't happen! ;)


Lo' and behold, my first underwater photos. Must be the most interesting diving experience yet. I was diving with our divemaster intern, Jiline. It was just me and Jiline - both very much strangers to the underwater world ;). 


Props to all the underwater photographers out there. After 2 dives, my photos came out mostly blurred and let's not get started on the angles. I snap whatever I could and no amount of Photoshop will give it justice. My photos of nudiebranch turn out looking like a flat worm. A porcupine fish looks very much like a flounder. And everything else underwater seems to be in a rough current. Panning maybe? 


The morning started with plenty of hot chocs and coffee and munching on biscuits (thats me). Billy the Kid gave me a crash course on compact camera underwater use. 


*HMM*


I can handle it on land no problem but underwater, tricky tricky.
