These are great. I especially like the second one - very clear, with a great background.

Did you use a flash for all these?

I notice this is just your third post. A belated welcome to DPS. Your photo are a testament to the diversity of our planet. Beauty above and a colorful and varied beauty under the sea. All your photos are just delights to the eyes. You must have had a wonderful time taking them. I sure enjoyed seeing them!

Fantastic Captures! I love Green sea turtles and you've done a great job on that one, I also like the last one of the lion fish! That Sea and Sea Casing is a nice piece of Kit! Did you rent it for the trip or are you a professional underwater photographer with too much money to spend? l.o.l
I had to look up Bonaire; I'd never heard of it before, but it looks like a Great place to visit if you are into this type of photography.
Thanks for Sharing these
Micahel.
