Beautiful, I'm a sucker for underwater shots. And I cant wait to go diving in the red sea. Nice photo, plenty of interest in foreground and background.
I though composition could be improved with a little cropping, so have left you a workshop. Hope you like it.
Can you tell me, is this a good place for a diving holiday, and how much it costs for diving here? Thanks

For this one I'll guess it's the spot called "Aquarium", a very shallow and nice place to spot fish schools by hundreds, especially sweetlips.

For me, you weren't close enough, hence the flash didn't manage to remove a cast on the fish. I think you should consider using a wider lens such as a 17-35 zoom in order to get intersting UW angle and closer views.

One of the best underwater shots on the site. Fish are colorful, sharp and interesting. Composition is good and you have a story -- it looks like the fish are hiding from the diver. Nice shot!

Hi Krzysztof,
Yes, I remember quite vividly your shot 'Hurghada' that a liked a lot!
But THIS image is simply unreal - I can't believe these beautiful tones of blues and greens accompanied by superb sharpness.
The awe is accentuated by a good composition where the diver comes from behind the reef and discovers exotic fish of the Red Sea himself!
Very good,
Robi
