Hello from a newbie
Hi

Thought I'd introduce myself...I'm Jan. I've been scuba diving for 17 years, although I haven't dived for a while. I did quite a bit of UK until I went to the Maldives 6 years ago and was spoilt, now I've become a bit of a softie holiday diver .

I'm off to Cairns next week and hope to do some diving on the Barrier Reef and a dive off Frazer Island. Anyone have any advice on "must do" dives in that area?

I've been doing a photography course but haven't leared anything about underwater photography so will just have to point n click and hope for the best.

Actually, I'm struggling with the whole photography thing at the mo....supposed to present a portfolio of images next week but can't even fathom out how to send my images to ProAmImage.....tooooo technical!! If anyone has any advice, I'd be very grateful !

Jan

Hi Jan
Welcome to YD
Osprey Reef out in the Coral Sea is top notch diving but getting out there is v weather dependent. Cod hole is a goody for some pics of huge fish with divers.
As far as sending pics, if you have a lot to send I'd burn them to disc and send them by snail mail. Depending on what you are sending files/or the number of pics tend to get to big to send by email.

Hi annatrnr,

Hi Triplefin

Thanks for the welcome and advice. I will look up Osprey Reef.

As for photo's, I have to present a portfolio of 12 x A4 prints so will burn them to disc and send via snail mail as you suggest.

Yes my eyes have certianly been opened by some of the non diving threads! But I have never met a group of people so willing to go out of their way for others and I have met the best set of buddies too.
