Non-divers liked these the best
1

I really like the intricate details of small critters with macro shots. But my non-diving friends, not so much. Not a big surprise what pictures they liked from my recent week diving in Jamaica.

Sharks - non-divers think all sharks starred in the movie Jaws. Naturally they gravitate to those images.

Sleeping nurse sharks - probably the least interesting of the sharks?

When they ask what kind of shark it was, I just tell them 'mankiller'.

Occasionally they like a crab shot:

Of all the shots I took that week, THIS one got the most likes. Why.I have no idea.

,And of course everyone wants to see a turtle:

I don't even like this image, because the head is blurred. Non-divers love it.

Occasionally, non-divers react to bright colors favorably.

Or some outstanding detail, even if the rest of the image is a mess:

This one gets attention just because it's red, I think.

Lionfish are always popular among non-divers.

Bright fish get a few looks.

These, and other, shots at my web site:
