I was diving a pinnacle and the current was so bad that the rest of the rec divers thumbed the dive and left me on oc and 2 rebreather guys to enjoy the reef for ourselves while they try to find something more.... tourist friendly.
The dive was amazing, I even got a shot of a small bluefin that scared the crap out of the baitfish. I also really missed a wide angle light I might actually invest into some, at some points I would be completely in the shade and I'm certain that the gorgonias would look incredible even with something cheap.
As I started to ascend I noticed the current getting stronger, like no longer swimmable stronger so I ducked and weaved in between the rocks crawling and hoping not to grab a fire worm or a moray.
When I go to the top of the pinnacle I grabbed on for dear life and went on with 20ish minutes of deco I had left and watched this spectacle in front of me, I can't say I ever expected deco to be the best part of a dive.
