Seatwill, that is very cool! It shows such detail in the scales. Were you really close to the fish or do you have a really good zoom lense? What parts of Baja are your favorites to dive in?:D

It is a Cortez Angelfish,angel de cortes,Pomacanthus zonipectus, One can get pretty close to these as thay like to guard there space:)I like the Bay of LA,the islands are great diving

Wow, I like the 2nd photo even better, it's awesome and makes me miss the Sea of Cortez. Thanks so much for posting them! Since I don't have a fancy underwater camera like you do, I think I'm going to try one of those disposable type underwater cameras when I go snorkeling around La Paz or Cabo Pulmo this winter.

I've used them and they work nice as long as you stay at the depth limits indicated. Takes pretty good pics too.
MUCH cheaper than the expensive ones. I occationally take a camera down with me diving but have a case that you put a desposable camera in and shoot from it. Works fairly well untill about the 60' mark then pressure causes problems winding and the position of the flash makes it very poor if the water is not clear because of the reflected light from all the little particals.:)

ARRRRGHHHH

right click on the pic and select "view jpg"
works for me. I think it is so the program doesn't have to load the picture every time to view the posts.;)
