Managed to get this shot of a napoleon wrasse on a dive and I’m honestly still blown away by how it turned out.

These fish look absolutely unreal underwater — huge, calm, and somehow full of character. The colors in the water, the coral textures, and that blue-green tone around the fish made the whole scene look almost surreal.

Shot this on an iPhone 17 Pro underwater, which still feels a bit crazy to say. Didn’t expect it to handle the scene this well.

Definitely one of those moments where you look at the footage after the dive and just sit there like… wow.

Greetings All,

Just returned from the Philippines for a two week dive trip, it was amazing!! Got some great shots that I will post later, but more immediately I am seeking some assistance in finding replacement o-rings for my Olympus housing. I had to replace o-rings on the trip, I had one spare set with me so no issues. But upon returning home, Backscatter whom I purchased the housing from has said they are no longer available. I have reached out to Olympus too, no response as of yet, but expect the same thing. Backscatter's suggestion was to contact an o-ring manufacturer. Guess that's an option but these are pretty unique and not round as most are.

Had anyone run into this type of issue with another brand of housing or (with luck) this type of housing? At best, it's 5-6 years old, never thought I would run into this this soon. Thanks in advance for any help!!
