"I think that you need to post the studies that show that using flash photography harasses marine life. Are you a marine biologist who has written the studies, how did you do your studies, and have they been validated. Does using the high tech very bright flashlights that divers have been buying constitute "harassing marine life".
Elaine, I have a better idea....why don't you post studies that show that show that using intense light directed into the eyes of noctural fish do not harm their eyes that are so sensitive they can see at night underwater. Clearly you must have them because common sense would tell the average person that this is a no-brainer.
While you're at it, Elaine, why not post those peer reviewed biology studies you know about that show that grabbing an Angel shark is detrimental to the shark.
