Here's some pics I took with my Olympus and an underwater housing. (I think it's the c1000? It's 5 years old)
I really loved it for scuba diving and highly recommend Oly for underwater use.

Those are some nice shots April.
I think the canon did ok, considering it is a P&S. I dislike the lag time alot. I think it is very slow and it took a while to get used to it.
I will upload a few photos once I get them downloaded. We got in last night and still exhausted lol.

Breezy added 113 Minutes and 48 Seconds later...Double Post Merged Below









These are just a few that I randomly selected and they are straight out of camera. Not perfect or great by any means but better than the disposible would have been. And my moms dive camera messed up and started leaking on the 3rd day so I have the few salvageable underwater pics.
We got to see a monk seal while on our snorkel tour, unfortunately it was so close that the camera didn't focus, he was so close that dd could have hugged it literally.

How nice Breezy!
If you take them into photoshop and adjust the levels, but each one separately. usually adjusting just the red makes a drastic difference. Takes away some of the blue. Then you can see your rockin pictures.
This one I adjusted the levels separately, some curves and some gammot.
