Thanks. I have been trying to upload more, but will have to link to my website when I am done. SB doesn't like my attachments for some reason. So sad.

Aug 1st - egg yolk and brown jelly heaven along the breakwater! Water a balmy 50 degrees down at 30 feet. But so awesome to watch the jellies taking over.

Sorry for the pic quality, I'm still very new to the photography scene.

The kelp patch was waaay murkier with the lack of light in the afternoon.

Ridiculous 8 ft filaments

Cheers,
Kat

Kat,

Those are some cool photos, I especially like your crab ones.

I'm just starting with photos too, and it's refreshing to see everyone's perspective. Plus, I have lots to learn, so it's great to see other's technique too.

I like your crab ones too!

Last Sunday, did one dive past Lone Metridium at Pt. Lobos. Calm seas with 30'+ viz at 70'. Lots of fish in the crevices and cracks along the wall.

Hey Don,

I've never seen your photo skills just your videos and might I add, very nice!!! How did you get the picture to come up with so many colors, I've not seen you with any strobes, and you had to be deep to take that pic at lone Metridium.

Any secrets that you are using would be well appreciated....
