Love is in the air - according to the squid

[scottfiji]

well, it's more like "Love is in the water", according to the squid. It's been a while since I posted some photos here, so I thought I'd "share the love".

Walter, Linda, Peter, Mike, Jim and I dove Friday night at Vet's. Saw some squid, lots of octopus. Conditions were not bad, well vis was so-so. I became an unpaid extra in walter's UW video. We had a nice drink afterwards together at El Torrito, just a 5 minute walk from the parking lot.

I returned again last night, and saw more squid, some nudies, octos, and a nice playful baby guitarfish. I was joined by kalani, walter, and linda again. Vis in the shallows wasn't great, but deeper it opened up beautifully.

enjoy the photos
