Call it beginner's luck...

First time I've taken the new camera in the water...

We don't see many of these guys around here.

Got this during this morning's dive off Hillsboro. I think it makes a difference when two people fall in off a little whaler.

(Hope this jpg make the journey ok)

My family lives in Boca and we were all certified in those waters. On our final ocean dive for OW, everyone in our group (except me) got to watch a huge hammerhead cruise by, while was snooping for bugs...

Instructor spoke for hours about the luck we had (except me) at such a sighting in that area, especially on a certification dive. I'm left with the story of the one that got away...
