Underwater Photography

[ballz0r]

When im not frying hardware, my other hobby is freediving (snorkling to the uninitiated)

I recently bought an underwater housing (http://store.aikotradingstore.com/sompuncahofo1.html) for my Cybershot TX1.

We had a really clear day out at Bunker Bay with loads of fish about... I thought I'd share it with you guys

OHH, that looks nice.

I'm so sick of winter. Three mornings in a row -0 F last week.

dude that would be hella fun to do but im a bitch. i dont like the very idea that there could possibly be something in that water that could EAT me. i like it the other way around tho. id rather EAT the fish than be eaten by one.

[ballz0r]

yeah I know what you mean.... theres been lots of shark sightings in the news over here.... even though your more likely to die of a bee sting than a shark attack imstill thinking about buying a shark shield (http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=shark+shield&btnG=Google+Search&meta=&aq=f&oq=)

it might stop them from stealing my fish!!!

Seriously dude, a manta ray? Didn't you know that manta rays are gay (http://art.penny-arcade.com/photos/223740765_5Ejri-L-2.jpg)?

fuck man... youve been to places where there are highly armed people trying to kill you and your scared of a fish? :confused:

[Crow]

My sister SCUBA dives, I'm thinking of taking it up also.

[Marne]

iraq is fuckin cake compared to a shark dude. hadji you know you can aim at the motherfucker and squeeze trigger. shark you dont know which way that fuckers going. you just know hes coming teeth first. plus i see them vids of great whites doing backflips 28ft in the air. FUCK THAT. fish dont play. why do you think there 2 different colors? dark up top and light ont he bottom? its so they can ninja there way along the bottom and blend in and at last second blow up from underneath with the speed of a berserk chimp with a homemade razorwire armor suit and one of those really fucking sharp knives you see on tv.

Otherside - Gold Coast for me.......

Your shots are so colourful - Where I'm based everything is so much plainer it gets boring I just want dinner and then I get back out.

[ballz0r]

Ahaha - I'm living at Cabarita Beach!!

I've been spearing since about 2000 when I got my open water cert. The plastic shell for my Sony T9 is sitting next to me and I'm trying to get my camera working for next weeks trip to Thailand (No I'm not going to try and meet up with Nicky).....
