Description

Providenciales, Turks and Caicos Islands,in the Caribbean. Mother Nature did not cooperate with my first time using my new little underwater camera. Snorkeling was canceled the first day due to rough seas. We did go out the next day in 8 foot swells and rough chop. It's tough to try a taking shots when the ocean is throwing you around so much. LOL Hoping for better luck next time.

Exif: Flash: did not fire, auto mode, ISO: 250, Model: PENTAX Optio WS80

Thanks everyone for the nice and funny comments. I actually did NOT have fun with the camera that day. It was a tough adventure and I did get a little queasy and tossed around way beyond my comfort level! We actually got pushed on top of a reef by a big swell but only got one cut and a few bruises. I hope the next time is better! #8328623

I love it. Your excellent POV gives this shot a lot of interest.

A Cribbean cruise; wow, that sounds so exciting. #8331795
