Three weeks away and I find the water a lot colder than when I left. 78 degrees on peoples' computers that actually record accurate temps. (Mine doesn't. It reads temps about 2 degrees warmer than they are and I had 79 degrees, so I'm going with 77.) Ditching the 5/4 wetsuit for the full 5 and wishing I'd brought the 7 mil from California.
The Red frogfish was a treasure find on the first dive. But, I hadn't checked my camera to confirm that auto focus was operational, and it wasn't. So I used the Gopro for this shot. Would love to come back with the macro and a camera that works.
Here's a really nice, healthy Antler Coralhead. A diver is inspecting its interior for critters. It's not uncommon to see Red Spotted Crabs, Blackside Hawkfishes, Dascyllus, Tangs, and, more rarely, Harlequin Shrimp.
Did I mention it was cold?
Then on to Turtle Haven. No turtles but there was a Lined Butterfly couple, a great Zebra Moray and a nice, fat Yellow Margin Eel. Camera was working on this dive, after I'd taken off the port and reset the AF toggle on the lens.
