About hi, my name is jay reilly.  i am professional commercial/ editorial photographer based on carlsbad, ca.  some of my past client include Nike, Sony, Hyatt, Conde Nast among many others.  this blog is dedicated to showcasing my assignment work and helping other photographers by sharing tips and tricks that have been vital to my business.  feel free to leave comments or post questions. thanks!
so with a new waterhousing comes new lenes.  just got the canon 28mm f1.8.  got it cause i needed those wide shots underwater and this was the right price for about $450.  it had some decent reviews and so now i own it.  i am pretty happy with it so far.  here are a few from a session with mike.

Krystal Mann: Great shots! Gotta love that lens.....oh, and the subject is pretty nice to look at too. ;) (07.25.08 @ 01:57 PM)
Sherman: How do you think it compares against the 35 1.4L? Might be a silly question but that 35 is about $700 more. (07.25.08 @ 03:10 PM)
jay reilly: if you want to comment, please use the "comment anonymously" as the other option does not seem to be working right now, thanks! i have never shot the 35mm 1.4. i would like focal lenght more for what i am doing, but it does not fit in my housing with out buying a new port ;-( but i think the 28 and 35 are far enough it would justify having both for different characteristics.
