That's so cool, I'd love to go scuba diving someday. And this cave, underwater?! How awesome!

And how clear is that water? Most underwater pics I've ever seen fall off on visibility really fast.

Viz is basically as far as your light will shine. I have to use 3 200watt/sec strobes (2 remote) to get the depth of field in these pics.......one wrong fin kick and viz can go to zero in heartbeat though.

ONe wrong kick is right! Personally I would have been on my SDS Evolution CCR with a constant PPO 1.4 instead of staging bottles ;)
