For years I lived on the Southeast Florida coast where my wife Lynn and I studied and photographed the reefs and wrecks from West Palm Beach to Fort Lauderdale. We did most of our diving on a stunning reef line from Boynton Beach south to Delray Beach. We also frequented the Upper Florida Keys, with its famous wrecks and pristine reefs.<br>

For years I lived on the Southeast Florida coast where my wife Lynn and I studied and photographed the reefs and wrecks from West Palm Beach to Fort Lauderdale. We did most of our diving on a stunning reef line from Boynton Beach south to Delray Beach. We also frequented the Upper Florida Keys, with its famous wrecks and pristine reefs.
Equipment and Workflow Most of the underwater photographs in the galleries were taken with a Canon digital SLR camera in an Ikelite underwater housing, using Ikelite DS-50, DS-125, and DS-160 TTL strobe systems. Some of the photographs were taken with a Nikonos V amphibious camera, Nikon SB-105 strobe, and FugichromeVelvia 50 slide film. Since 2011, I've been using a Canon 7D in an Ikelite housing with Ikelite DS-160 strobes. For underwater photography at night, I use a Light and Motion SOLA Photo 500 Lumen framing light.
The photographic styles represented here include macro, close-up, portrait, and wide-angle. For underwater macro and close-up shots I generally use 50mm, 60mm, and 70mm lenses. Although some of the close-up shots were taken with a close-up lens and wire framer on the Nikonos V system. For underwater wide angle photography, I use either a Canon 15mm fisheye lens, or a Nikonos 15mm wide-angle lens. Most of the shots that were illuminated by strobes were taken with the aperture set to f11, shutter speed set to 1/60th of a second, and ISO set to either 50 or 100.
