That is cool.

Very cool shots. I've always envied people who could get such good pictures underwater. I never had as much success getting pictures to come out as well as what I actually saw underwater when I've been diving. One of the neatest, most bizarrely-fascinating things I've seen when diving was watching it rain from underneath the water. Seems simple enough, but for some reason for me it's just mesmerizing to me to watch it rain from underneath.

I've always loved that...since I was a kid. I loved when it rained, but no lightning, so I could stay in the pool and look at the rain from down under.

As for the pictures...I'd just love it if I could take a decent picture even above the water!

Hi quality underwater cameras have made those shots so much easier. I remember fumbling with a Canon AE-1 in an Ikelite housing trying to get pictures when we used to dive regularly.

Mine was an EOS, but yeah, that was basically the limit of amateur underwater photography, at least back then. That was expensive enough, but if you wanted anything better, it was a big step up to get into pro-quality equipment.

That one is really cool...like surfing in the clouds.
