I did take some (actually quite a few) images in the ocean while I was snorkeling, with my Sea Life underwater camera. Since it is not a Pentax, I have not been posting those images here, except for the turtles of course. The images taken on the reef are not of good quality, for the most part, because of the difficulty getting close enough to the fish and because of sand, bubbles and reflected sunlight between the camera and the fish. I am working on a small gallery of those shots, however, and may post a link to them here as an "OT" post when I am done.
