Fantastic i really love the extremy crispness
and as "Luvcorky2" said... it really looks like you're there in the water with Him/her because theres absolutly no glares or smears on the window

Absolutely gorgoues!

Looks as if you took this right there under the water with the dolphin. Theres just no glare or anything that shows this is underwater viewing which is amazing! The colors are outstanding and the clarity is to die for. Incredible!

Thanks again !

I love the focus on the face, it's so sharp! I also love the fact that your dolphin shots look so natural, if I didn't know better I'd say they were shot in the wild!

Thank you so much !

The little kit lens that came with my camera is VERY sharp !

I almost always shoot the dolphins underwater against the one wall that looks natural - the one away from the feeding wall ...

When the light is right, I can get lucky ! (but I have to use a LOT of scratch removal in Photoshop on some pictures )

Thanks again !

Yeah, even at Marineland it has a few scratches but SeaWorld is 100 times WORSE since you can actually touch the glass (Marineland has bars in front of the glass). The time and effort you take in removing the scratches really pays off, it is so distracting when they are there!

Yea, a little scratch-removal on the parks' part may be worth a suggestion from a guest

Thanks again !
