 In a surgey zone around large boulders I found this group of silver drummer.  We played peek a boo around boulders in the surge and when I got to close they would zoom off into the white water, the light levels were low, shot this image at 1/40th of a sec.  Surprised that there is sharpish image at all. Shot on a Nikon D2x with a 12 to 24mm lens set at 12mm. D2x is only good up to 200ISO.  Need to get an underwater housing for my D700.

  • Playing peek a boo with silver drummer around boulders,  shot this image at 1/60th of a sec.   I would dive down and swim away from the Silver Drummer to other side of boulder, then turn around underwater and come to the bottom of the boulder, the fish would usually come to see where I disappeared and often poke thier heads around the corner to see where had gone, where apon seeing me would usually flee to the other side of the boulder away from me.   Shot on a Nikon D2x with a 12 to 24mm lens set at 24mm. The Needles, Great Barrier Island. Hauraki Gulf, New Zealand
