The continuing sagas of the Blue Heron Bridge

[BHB ScubaTroll]

My GF let me use her DSLR today. First time taking photos U/W. Used a 105mm macro lens. It was a lot of fun!

Very nice pictures... Through experience on the macro shots, I have learned to place my focus on the center body portion and just a fuzz higher to make the shot clearer. By looking at your nudi shots, I can see the "real" focus point is just below the subject and a touch to the right... Practice and you'll see those shots get better and better each time

We missed you on Saturday, Dove with Judy who pointed this Seahorse to me

Very nice pictures- what I need to do to post my pictures "BIG SIZE" like you. My pictures when posted are about 1" tall - Thanks

You are attaching photos rather than uploading them to your "Photo Gallery" here on SB

To the diver who nearly injured the little seahorse please watch where you place your reel & watch the force of the placement. It isn't necessary to hit the sand so hard. I can't believe that you didn't notice what your dive buddy had just photographed & that you had missed the signal your other dive buddy had given as she pointed out the little guy. If you didn't hit it you missed only by an inch & your reel totally laid over it. Please be more careful. Also, to the diver who landed on top of me & your buddies who created a windstorm of sand that flew into our cameras & over our subject it 8 feet of water with a dive flag nearby please look before submerging.
I realize that at times BHB can be crowded but there is room for all of us.
Anyhow it was a good dive although I hear the viz on Sat was far better.

He is a cute little guy. You are getting better with your pics. Glad to hear you had a good dive. I wish I had been there but I was able to go on Sunday

Unfortunately, this happens way too much. Mostly these divers are either new or haven't a clue.

CoolTech, thanks for the tips...not sure when I'll get to use the camera again....but when I do I'll make sure to give that a try.

Flooded my camera at Phil Foster Park this afternoon. Not having a camera checklist like I've been saying since since my last flood 2 years ago would have prevented the accident. It was stupid oversite on my part...I got the camera and housing out of the water quickly...so hopefully it's salvageable...Just looking at the poor thing on my desk with tears in my eyes.

Otherwise a great dive...saw 3 Octopus
