This is a picture I took in 2004 in New Zealand using a Canon 1DS and an Aquatech Housing.
As I only use the housing a few times a year I have decided to try and rent it. If like me, before I purchased the housing, I'm sure there are loads of people with great ideas for surface/underwater pictures who can't justify the expense of a housing and ports for one job/picture.
The housing will take a Canon 1D or 1DS both mk1 and mk2. If anyone is interested in renting this now or in the future please email me and I will send you details of the kit and lens ports that I have.

I would imagine that this area of photography throws up a whole lot of different challenges and problems Barry, but this certainly shows what can be achieved!!
The inclusion of the anglers sets the scene perfectly, and the fish is very well defined

Cool shot Barry
Great angle and composition. This should be in the WPOY competition, in the 'man and animals' section like the dead deer, and the dead mountain hare shots.

Cracking shot. I love the way the water line splits the shot virtually 50/50 - it shows the above- and underwater divide very well.
Top class.
