I had a choice of keeping my Life as an Underwater PhotographerBob Evans Photography or jumping into the Force Fins. A real crossroad in life at 30. Looking back now at 74 I wish I had kept diving and traveling. One customer with a split fin a

and you would think the World had stopped. Funny how some people can make a mountain from a mole hole. Have a nice Sunday and may your life be Blessed. Life is short, Photo by Bev Morgan, San Miguel Island 1971.

Robbie Meistrell and I were talking the other day. His Father Bob and twin Brother Bill Meistrell owned Dive N' Surf in Redondo Beach, California. At 16 teen Robbie and I became good friends. Later with his support, the Family supported Force Fin development. Another story. But he reminded me of this image. You can only see Robbie and Perch in 1967. Looming overhead was the hull of the "Avon", laying in 70 feet of water, off Palos Verdes, California. The next day we went back again to take more pictures and the whole side of the ship had fallen over flat. We both looked at each other with amazement realizing how close we came to being entombed. Another image is

of Bob looking down the houser hole. Another image of Jim Pennington. Used mostly Black and White film at the time due to the

higher cost for color.
