"John,
your pictures are absolutely awesome. I simply sit there and am not productive
at all ...simply looking and learning about these fish. Thank you...."

"I
just wanted to let you know how much I am enjoying the Hawaii fishes screensaver.
Having just returned from a trip to Hawaii, with 700+ digital photos of my own,
I was looking for a palm trees-and-sunsets type of screensaver. Yours intrigued
me more, however, and I had no knowledge of your books. Your photographs are
amazing. I particularly like reading the Hawaiian and scientific names and the
habitat information. Count me as another very satisfied customer!
- A.F. Farmington, New Mexico
I've
just been glancing at your screensaver only to find once again how much I love
it. Even though I think I've seen all of the pictures, after more than a month
I am still finding some I haven't seen. I never seem to get tired of any of
them - and neither does anyone else in our family. They just seem to bring back
our amazing memories!" - V.H. Oakland, California
I am still getting so much pleasure from the screen saver. It is just enchanting! Thanks for your wonderful work. - V.L.S. Rough and Ready, California
Dont start this CD unless you have a few free hours. You will definitely be fascinated. Time will pass unnoticed. You will smile and be glad and be unable to drag yourself away from the screen to actually go out and look at live fish. - J.B. Kihei, Maui
RAINBOW REEFS HAWAII
Super Screensaver / Slideshow
500 colorful underwater photos of reef fish, turtles, dolphins,
nudibranchs, and other facinating marine animals
CD in folding cardboard wallet. $7.99
including postage (USA , Canada, Mexico). For Windows 95 and up.
Hawaii's undersea world has long enticed visitors and
residents alike, and wildlife is the main attraction. Nowhere else in the Islands
can such a bounty of fascinating and colorful animals be seen at such close
range. Most are fishes. Coming in all sizes and shapes, they are everywhereon
the bottom, at the surface, under the sand, in caves, even inside other animals.
Their vibrant colors are astounding, their shapes sometimes strange beyond belief.
Many have developed elaborate mechanisms of defenseballoons, poisons,
hypodermic syringes, electric shocks. Others mimic stones, coral, sponges, plants,
crabs, each otheranything to survive and multiply. There are fishes that
can fly and fishes that can't swim. Some are as big as a city bus, others the
size of a pin. The variety is endless.
You can also play this screensaver as a slideshow, directly from the CD. In either case, all animals are identified, making this CD a great way to learn about Hawaiian marine life. (Does that cover fish really exist? Yes, it's an amazing Psychedelic Wrasse, found only in Hawai`i.)
In addition to the screensaver / slideshow, there is a fish-id gallery to help you identify the fish you see while snorkeling or diving. You can even upload these photos to your iPod! Put the iPod in a waterproof case--they make them--and take it down with you for instant fish ID. A fishPod--what a concept!
