    Wow, nice photo, must be sooo tiny. You know what I’m gonna do next? Dive with a magnifying glass so at least I can see these things!

    Momon, you forgot to add one more thing - a very LARGE memory card, so you can shoot and shoot until batteries run out, and maybe come up with one good shot! Haha!
