Amazing photos Tim. Nice meeting you Jenny and Syn. Syn, I'd like to hear about your dive.

My dive computer showed 70 for the majority of the dive, but did log a low of 69. Viz was great up through slack. I got to see my first nudis! The green ones are still VERY challenging to make out. I took some photos and am pleasantly surprised how several turned out considering I didn't have good lighting or a decent camera. I took several of the same pictures as Tim's subjects, but I won't bother posting them since they don't compare.

Tim, good find on that seahorse.I tried getting a shot of him, but I couldn't get a focused picture. The bobbit worm was cool too.
Um. Nope.. post them anyways, its not a competition on who shoots the best photo. It's about sharing what you saw.

up early today for the hour trek up to the bridge. Was rewarded with a new nudi for me, looks like love is in the sea. :heart:

Vis, my guess was 25-30 with the lowest bottom temp of 73°. And will agree, it was :cold: last night.
 
I agree, it is all about sharing what you saw and is fun to see it from different perspectives.

Thinking about a marathon dive tomorrow AM. The full tanks I have are LP125's!!!
 
Wow, them are some tanks. Get a cave fill and you'll never surface.
 
From last night and this morning.

Don't shoot these guys much, if ever, but this one caught my fancy with the beautiful colorations.

Just looked at my dive computer. Had 72° on Thursday night, and 71° yesterday morning. :cold:
When I got home Thursday night, I threw my wetsuits in the washer, then on delicate in the dryer. First time I've driven to a dive site in my wetsuit. Figured I didn't want to suit up in the parking lot at 49°. thanks to Jet's idea, I brought not only a thermos of hot tea, but also filled up my water cooler with hot water. NICE!!!
 
Fun dive tonight with Mr Chen! Got to meet Scuba Jenny and Synonymous.

Love seemed to be in the air again tonight. Although two different kinds of slugs is kinda weird....

Whoa! Yer pics from that dive are almost enough to get me back in the car. Especially like the green shrimp, and you even make the bobbit worm look (sort of) attractive. :) Some of those nudi shots look like they came out of a studio or something. Just fantastic stuff. Thanks for sharing.

Do you reckon those two green ones are two different species?? Fascinating.

You planning to go in with both them 125's?? You must be wearing a 10mm or dry suit, eh?

Yes, an Oxynoe Antillarum and an Elysia Subomata

No just one with a healthy fill. 3 hours later and still had ~55cu ft left.


Today's dive was nice. 73°F, 20-25' vis out in front of the beach (never went under a bridge.) Pics coming soon.
 
Nice!!!!
 
to whomever I point the regal sea goddess out to on the east side today PLEASE post photos! it was so cool!
