The continuing sagas of the Blue Heron Bridge

[fisheyeview]

I got talked into going back to the bridge on Saturday. It wasn't too hard to do.

It was much more productive than the two previous dives. Here are some of the shots.

Wonderful photos.
The vis was incredible on saturday.
I got to hang out with an OW class full of rototillers.
It was still fun nonetheless.

I must have missed the baby trunk fish, but I do see a black frogfish and a striated frogfish.

My pictures are about the same subject as Scott's... I have to get him to stop following me around

I tried to tell him to stop following me here, but he had his mind made up...

Saturday: I still haven't fixed my strobes, and 5 minutes into the dive and I found that my focus light was flooded (I have since rinsed it and verified that it does still work... Whew!)

So, thank the gods for a good vis day on Saturday because I was shooting with natural lighting only.

Here's an example of the vis and sunlight...
Vis was great and allowed me to take some wide angle shots!

When you get sunlight like this it's time to take some "sand" shots for the artsy-fartsy types...

One of the wide angle shots I forgot earlier...
Juvenile Trigger fish that kept attacking my lens

Good vis means good "diver" shots as well...
Lil' Castaway

KBeck determined to get the striated Frogfish and (very) red Sea Star...

Lil' Castaway and KBeck angling for that perfect shot...

KBeck really wants that Frogfish shot!

Scott, that line is really getting tangled in your gear!

Some of the "other" sea life...

Juvenile File Fish

Yellow Razorfish

Done with the wide angle lens

Juvenlie Triggerfish and juvenile Gray Angel fish

Wide angle of the (very) red Sea Star with a striated Frogfish hanging close

I'll end this session with some "sex"! Headshield Sea Slugs doin' it!

Again, I thank the gods of light and vis for providing enough natural light and vis to take these shots... lol
