Over a two week period, I managed over 1,500 images but in underwater work, the reject ratio is very high- particularly with macro photography. I'm moving, the subject is moving, and TTL electronics do not work without the addition of a module between the housing (camera) and strobes, which I do not have. Exposure bracketing is a must underwater. I made the mistake of taking only one strobe due to worrying about overweight baggage- hence some bothersome shadows. At any rate, I got quite a few keepers and here's an example of a few. All images shot with a Nikon D3x, 105mm Macro VR, Aquatica housing, and Sea & Sea lighting: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Wendy+Thurman/_DSC3039.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Wendy+Thurman/_DSC3543.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Wendy+Thurman/_DSC4342.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Wendy+Thurman/_DSC4596.jpg.html Thanks for looking, Wendy
