May I suggest you play with your camera on land? Especially with a strobe or light, it helps to work out those issues when you have some time to play. I always tell people the best way to get better is shoot everyday. Not for great photos, but to learn the camera and play with the settings.

My older car had a valet key that came away from the FOB. Genius! I put the FOB in the trunk, put the valet key on a locking clip that I attached to my bathing suit, and enjoyed my dive. Easy.

LOL so does @gypsyjim

Hide the cell phone in the car. Put the car keys in a DRYFOB that @Jaan makes. dryfob.com

Holy Frijolies! That's a lot of spadefish!

How was your diving in 2024? How many dives? Did you have an extra special dive? Saw something? A destination, or buddy? Any courses? Learn something new? Gave up an old (diving related) habit? What are you looking forward to in 2025? New equipment? Other? 1. I was able to do a lot of...

nice

Nice plate. Wish I needed it!

Nope. Just the underwater wide setting

No post processing, jpg version from camera. Shot natural light.

Thanks for the report. Glad you got at least one dive in. Hoping it gets better this week. Have 2 dives scheduled... Did a bridge dive on Wednesday. One person found 9 seahorses, we "only" found 4. They also found a striated froggie. And I was ready to brag I found the first dwarf froggie of...

Congrats Pete! Nice write up!

Yep. Pink Meanie.. Haven't seen one yet, and that's OK!

Nice photos. We get them off Ft. Lauderdale beach in the summer. Have also seen them in multiples on the Gulf Coast. Wait for them to pass. Dive. Dive. Dive.

Topside photos can still be a challenge! Set the camera on a tripod and use the remote software.. Whoops. Helps when the subject is in focus!

Pura Vida charges for the guided dives. You would need to contact them for details. Force E is free. Just sign up at the shop, sign the waiver.

Pretty much what @Pipehorse said about Force E. They offer night dives, you go to the shop, fill out the waiver and go on your merry way. Was up at the bridge on Sunday, vis was dismal, somewhere between 5-10, though the 10 is being generous. No great finds, but was good to be in the water.

My experience with the TG6 is if the battery is about half or less, it doesn't like to shoot video. I've not heard that from others. OTOH, there is a local guy who freedives and shoots with a go pro and dual strobes. He does some really nice stuff. Nice enough I am starting to see copycats of...

Nice... do you bring yummy snacks when beach diving? :D Wanna dive? :D
