A year on and Lady Elliot Island photos finished

Well it may have taken a year, but I'm relieved to say that I've finished processing Lady Elliot Island photos. They are now available for viewing over at my gallery. They're split into two sections, one for above the water line and one for below.

The underwater photography at Lady Elliot was a real challenge (even more so than usual), thanks to overcast weather, poor visibility and a lot of 'stuff' in the water. I guess that the 'stuff' is why the manta rays live there, it's what they eat, but it makes getting a clear shot incredibly difficult.

Lots of Photoshop work was necessary to turn them into half decent shots, but hopefully there are a few there that make the effort worthwhile.

I got a few nice sunset shots too and even managed to capture a lone turtle hatchling as he/she was making their way to the ocean.

It's good to have this work done, but just when I had my new book (Lord Howe Island) lined up next in the queue, something else has surface that will cause more delays. We're off to Heron Island very soon for a week in the water and, of course, more photos as a result!
