Nina said you were a diver. I quit about 5 years ago as my wife did not dive and had no intention of learning so felt like I was spending our vacation dollars on only me. Probably was time to give it up anyway. Nice shot. Oly 5050C was a great camera at the time. I shot Richo GX5 and GX7 with Sea & Sea housing.
