Pacific Photography Lessons!

Today was a fun day on the water for student divers and certified alike. We left the dock with a small friendly group of divers at 12:30 in the afternoon on the Sea Fox. Heading out onto calm waters and light winds we found ourselves soon tied up under the sun at Koko Crater. Our first dive was to an easy 38 feet with great visibility! Descending down to a soft sandy bottom we had open water students practicing skills while our advanced divers worked on their Underwater Photography. The sunken Buddha statues were posing for pictures while Sargent Majors and Wrasse photo bombed every picture! A few other shots taken of Scorpion fish and Green Sea turtles and then back to the boat!

Soon the divers were back on the surface drying off and warming up in the sun while we moved the boat to our next dive destination at Turtles Canyons. Once the group was suited up with new tanks we descended down to a max depth of 40 feet and began exploring the hard corals and rubble. With Aha Needlefish and Triggerfish swimming around and Moray Eels poking their heads between the rubble below our underwater photography was coming along great! The open water students came across a yellow and black nudibranch and a couple cute blennys!

Today was another great day for diving with new students and great divers. Photography was fun and the Pacific set the scene!
