As has been said here before, a week is really too short. But, when it's all you have, give it your all!

New critters I spotted this trip were many... I think the camera really slowed me down and got me looking more closely.

I love the goats Becky! Were you in the same unit? I love the Bachelor's Beach shot. That is going to be Kaytlyn's first dive in December.

Oops, second picture should be spotted cleaner shrimp, not spotted anemone shrimp.

A camera slowed me down to the point that my dive buddy/wife said I was too slow for her. Then I made her my spotter and all is well!

dang... that wasn't the picture I wanted. Now to find the one it was supposed to be, hmmmmmm.

Ok, found it

Very nice! I can't wait to dive with you again now that you are a photographer. I won't feel guilty about slowing way down to play with a blenny. Great shots! More please....

Becky, great shots...I stared at your first shot of the 2 fighting eels for quite a while looking for the "other" eel and finally gave up and figured it was my bad "eyes" and moved on...then saw that you posted the wrong one..."whew"...lol!

GREAT shots Becky - thanks for these. Glad you had a good time. And you're right - 1 week on Bonaire is NEVER enough.

Bachelor's Beach is such a nice dive ! We did it just as the sun was startng to set and lots of critters were coming out ... We've been back less than 4 days and in serious PBD. Denise

That longsnout was an active little bugger, didn't want his pic taken. And I know the 4 spot should be a foureye... oops, fingers going faster than brain ;-)

I miss my/our island too! Thanks for the pics. Now I am going to go put on my favorite Dive Bonaire t-shirt, my Bonaire bucket hat, make some tea in my lovely Bonaire Mug and start reading...Don't Stop the Carnival. If that doesn't help my PBD nothing will.
|
By Debbie Babcock (Supreme BonaireTalker - Post #4541) on Monday, October 16, 2006 - 9:25 pm: |
Wow! Love your artsy shot, simply breathtaking!

By Lydia S. Segal (Experienced BonaireTalker - Post #169) on Monday, October 16, 2006 - 9:27 pm: |
What camera did you use, for the underwater and above? And what housing? and With or without a strobe? thanks Lydia

By Alex Brown (Experienced BonaireTalker - Post #166) on Monday, October 16, 2006 - 9:38 pm: |
Great pics, Becky! Tribs, if it will help your PBD--we had 3.5 inches of rain this morning and my front yard is so flooded I can't get my car out!
|
By Becky (back to PADI spy) Hauser (Experienced BonaireTalker - Post #865) on Tuesday, October 17, 2006 - 12:22 am: |
Thanks everyone, it was "fun" to take a bizillion pictures and not have to worry about cost of developing (I'm finally a digital convert!)

Becky....LOVE the salt mounds picture! Simply stunning...could be a postcard for Bon!

Thanks for trying Alex...I guess you could always snorkel out of your drive way.

I admit it was a lame attempt .

Becky nice pictures, I love the Salt mounds picture that is really good. Cherub Fish nice find, Queen Angel is nice and the wide angle shots such as Our Confidence are really nice.
|
By James T. McPeak (Experienced BonaireTalker - Post #414) on Sunday, October 22, 2006 - 10:00 am: |
Becky, that shot at the salt mound is simply outstanding. The reflection is beautiful. I just said to my wife that I would love to spend a full day just taking some really cool shots like that. Thanks for the inspiration.
