Nice shots! I really like the first sunball/fish/anemone shot with the contrasting blues and reds. Good on ya!.

Fab pics... really thanks for posting. It gives me something to look forward to.

Water clarity was good also... yes? or was it Photoshop?

I wish I knew how to improve water clarity via PS! The vis was very respectable, ~50feet. There was particulate in the water column, but I avoided backscatter by pointing the strobes out, using only the edges of the light cones to light the subjects.

Those pictures rock! Fantastic job.

This was a terrific post for me: I have never heard of this dive site and I'm frequently in the Long Beach area for business. I'm definitely going to look into this.
