Each picture in which the watch was without owner I was afraid that a fish would come along and grab it. What if that big eel had grabbed it---

Great pictures to see as I am at my desk job!

Yes, along with the flounder......I don't know what that poor fish did wrong to get both eyes moved to one side of his body and being made to swim like that on the bottom.

This technique works well to depths of ~ 20m. Anything deeper than that and a strobe is needed because there just isn't enough light. I hope to get a strobe for these deeper shots in the near future

Stunning images. Amazing! thanks so much for sharing these.

And it's always marvellous to see our watches in their 'natural' environment; used what they were actually built for.

I have a SubC and DSSD... and it's sad to say that, the most diving they've ever done are a couple of dips in the bathroom sink! LOL.
