I like the dark tones Peter!
Today the wife and I took a walk at the local state park and since it's warmed up considerably I decided to give another go at shooting some underwater images. I recently got a cute little tripod with a max height of about 6" (yes inches) which makes it ideal for this. Both taken with my Nikonos V and 15mm f/2.8 lens on Foma 400:
Thanks, Bryan. Those are interesting shots! I've never done any underwater photos, although a pro that I used to assist for did some commercial work in pools: https://www.jefflendrum.com/architecture-copy-1/

It's hard since I'm just guessing at composition and a lot of images are just grey nothing because of the moving and unclear water. Definitely not ideal or recommended conditions but fun trying to get something interesting.
Scanning my second roll and I think this is my favorite from the day. Will have to try printing this to see how it looks as a finished print. The moving bubbly water on the top is from a small waterfall/cascade rolling over a fallen log.

I got a reducer for my telescope and finally had a couple hours of kinda okay seeing to try it last night.
Celestron C8 + 0.63x reducer
Nikon D800E, 22 exposures at 30s each, ISO 1600 + Dark/Bias frames
Skywatcher EQ6-R mount, QHY PoleMaster alignment
That's really good, Bryan!
