STUNNING! I had no idea NC was so nice!

Can you give the gist? I don't get that mag.

Ooh, never thought about narcosis increased risk. What has (kinda) worked for me: Start dosing dramamine about two days prior. Apply patch night before and take half a chewable dramamine the day of. USUALLY that's sufficient and I haven't had ill effects from the drugs. I've been down...

Con: having dive buddies make relentless fun of me for the rest of my natural life. Pro: Being able to pipe down the theme from Jaws when diving with shark-nervous buddies.

Gorgeous, and good framing.

Hmmm, looks like a mako and a white had a baby. Forbidden luv... Do they hang out this far south? I thought their prime stomping ground (swimming ground?) was in Alaska. With the breeding grounds near Tamales Bay, I'd think baby GW sightings would be baby GW sightings (or leopard sharks...

I like the "encounter" language. Lotta surface attacks. Though it lists the attack at Point Lobos as a major injury, which I found surprising. What constitutes minor?

Elephant seals are a GW delicacy, so I'd say don't dive in places where there's huge elephant seal haul outs, particularly during landlord season. Off the top of my head, I can only think of ano nuevo and the Farallons as known elephant seal breeding grounds, and you wouldn't catch me diving...

What about a mac version of Paint Shop Pro? I have both PSP and PS and I really like PSP for simplicity, particularly the much maligned lighting/contrast.

Hey Jenn!!!!!!!!!!!! How's it going, girl? Glad you're finishing up that cert; you've certainly been doing enough diving in my pool! ;) Luv ya, girlie.

A few issues... 7 months is a good long time to drop a significant amount of weight in a healthy manner. I don't know about "great diet ideas", but I can tell you what works for me (40 lbs gone). First of all, don't diet. "Diet" implies a short term solution to achieve a goal, which...

You're rarely going to "definitely get the bends". There are a few exceptions but they are usually extreme (read about a guy that had his drysuit autoinflate and rocketed him up over 100 feet with about a significant amount of deco left and he was still only in his deep stops, so yeah)...

That shot is amazing, and so well composed.

Argh, this is going to drive me insane. I'm shooting an Oly C-5060 in an Ike housing, Ike DS-50 single strobe, TTL through a sync cord, having flooded my manual controller for slave set up while in the Philippines. The problem... generally, about halfway through a first dive, I lose my...

Marvelous shot

Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, sorry!! I was thinking he meant Venice, CALIFORNIA. D'oh. I think that's also an area where people find white, mako, and meg teeth, though I could be wrong.

Great mood!

The SoCal forum might be a good place to ask, if you haven't already.

Awesome shot!
