The B&W is nice, but I prefer the colour one in this case.

IMHO, B&W is good for where you can't fix your white balance.

Not a great photograph, but interesting subject matter. It was fairly deep (about 25m) and I'm not convinced that using a strobe is a good idea in case you startle the local wildlife (this one was about 12 feet long). Hope to get a better photo on a future dive in shallower water.

That is awesome. What kind of shark is that? How close were you to it?

It's a grey nurse shark. They're pretty docile, in spite of some fearful looking teeth. There were four of them at this spot, this one was about fifteen feet away when I took this photo, and they were closer than that at times. I'd like to go back to this site (Wolf Rock, a couple hours north of here) in November, apparently there will be several dozen of them at that time of year. There's some far better shark pictures from that location than I'm capable of here.
