Perry, please number each of the pics in your future posting, thanks.

Oh my... looks so nice... dreaming on a diving trip... your picture so so clear.. love it

Hi Simmon:

I have already put down the numbers. Just a question, if you have uploaded them here, would it be possible for you to reshuffle or correct the postings?

Dear Chang Shong:

To a wildlife photographer, underwater photography is a gift handed down from up above. Unlike bird or safari shootings, fish and many marine creatures are territorial and would not swim too far away from you. What you see in 10 minutes of a dive sometimes (arguably) could be more than what you see in 10 hours of a safari. Having said that, in an aqua environment, one is limited and restricted by the air consumptions, pressures and movements issues. Not forgetting that the equipments issues which could cost a hand and a leg.

Perry, u have missed out a few pics for the numbering.

that is why it is so awesome to see all these pictures... thanks for sharing with us..

Hi Simmon:

For those pics with the same heading, i did not number them so that it would be obvious that they are in the subset. Would this implicate a wrong numbering methodology?

hahaha... i'm goin soon...

The reason why numbering is important is that it will be easier when someone wants to comment about your pic. One can just mention #3, instead of maybe #2 second picture, or #2b or something.

you better kill me...
