I am really amazed of how they use reflection and refraction in the composition. I have a Nikon D5000 and have been looking for an inexpensive housing so if you have any suggestions I appreciate, thanks They´re all gorgeous!

If you're serious about u/w, do this: become a good diver, first & foremost. The diving comes first, and if not you'll not only blow your shots but potentially endanger yourself (and others) in the process. When you've become absolutely comfortable multitasking underwater, go to Backscatter.com (my preference), or BlueWaterPhotoStore.com or ReefPhotoVideo.com, and check out the different housings for your favorite (d)SLR. My final recommendation, not followed by many ( ;) ), is buy TWO of your favorite dSLR - one for the dives, one for backup WHEN (not if) your housing floods and destroys the camera. (It hasn't happened to me yet though....) To those asking about u/w cam suggestions:

The Flickr link provided is okay, but if you're interested my main site is: http://terrygoss.ifp3.com (more recent shark updates to come, my favorite diving & photo subject...).
