Escaping from the cold hard winter in the northeast, the photos on this page were taken during our February 2010 visit to our condo at Sand Dollar and Bari Reef.

Using a Nikon D200 in an Aquatica housing, equipped with a set of dual Nikonos SB-105 strobes, Alan shot all the underwater photos on this page.

Except for the photos of Joan, which were taken with the Nikon 12-24mm lens and Aquatica 8 inch dome port, all the underwater photos were shot with the Nikon 60mm lens using the Aquatica macro port.

Also on this trip Joan updated her undersea mural in our condo. If you would like to see how she created it and how it came out you can go to mural project.

If you would like to see the photos from our other visits to Bonaire go to August 2007 photo gallery or February 2008 gallery .You can see more of Alan’s photojournalism work for The New York Times at his web site. His underwater photography has been featured in the travel section of the paper.
