A very nice shot. Excellent composition and a variety of good expressions captured. Technically perfect. I processed several hundred rolls of Fuji Velvia slide film, shot underwater in a Nikonos V or Nikonos RS. There's a steep learning curve to U/W photography, and i knew that waiting at least three weeks for mail order processing to come back would be very inefficient. I lived in the Central Pacific at the time. Kodak used to make E4 kits, but they stopped. I had no trouble with temperature control, just using a water bath of a couple gallons capacity and the hot/cold mixer faucet at the kitchen sink. The apartment building where I lived had a near-infinite supply of very hot water, so mixing for the final wash could give a very stable 100 F (38 C). I was never brave enough, nor did I have the time to dip my toe into the complexities of color printing, though a couple of my friends did very well. Slide film is not the best route to prints, but I got good results from a pro lab in Austin, Texas, where I visited at least once a year on vacation from the Pacific. Good luck! RNJ

I never had problems with the E4Kit and temperature control, but we were living in Saudi Arabia at the time ... And I wasn't brave enough either ...
