A couple of weeks ago, Kimberly and I spent a week on the *excellent* live-aboard dive boat Cayman Aggressor IV, diving off Grand Cayman, Little Cayman, and Cayman Brac in the Caribbean (diving is our #1 hobby and passion). The diving was absolutely fabulous, and we'd both strongly recommend the boat and location. The crew and fellow divers were great folks, which made the trip all the more enjoyable - and we got to meet and hang out with the editor of Sport Diver magazine, Eric Michael, cool guy with a pony-tail :-)

Although Kimberly's an accomplished underwater photographer, this was the first trip where I dove with my own camera gear and I took a bunch of videos. I've uploaded the best videos to YouTube and thought I'd share them with you too.

The camera I'm using for now is just a Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5, but it takes great shots and video. We've got a pro video camera but the tricked-out housing prices are out of control...

Over the next few weeks we'll both be uploading a bunch of photos too - but it takes time to mess around with them in Adobe Lightroom, and we took over 4000 shots altogether...

Enjoy the videos!
