Photo Album

Some photos from Memorial Day weekend on the Narcosis. Absolutely perfect drift diving, giving divers experience with both calm seas and strong current. Don't ask the webmaster how it is that he went down with Group 1, yet surfaced with Group 2. Again, some good opportunities for fish ID. See how you do.

Find the fish among the rocks.

Another puzzle. Where's the animal?

OK. Not too hard. This is why they're called 'bugs.'

fish Since they're out of season, lobsters could be seen everywhere, out in the open.

Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my closeup.

A great dive with Neptune Dive & Ski, on the Narcosis.

A lionfish. They were EVERYWHERE. Unfortunately. The trip was all about lionfish.

This trip was also about turtles. Good to see that they were everywhere this year.

Peace be to you, also.

Concentrating on perfect buoyancy.

Yes, they bite. Didn't see many eels this trip. They're usually everywhere.

Shy.

The night dive.

...another one going. Word to the wise: the Narcosis dive guides don't want you messing with puffers.

Look in the center. No, it's not a rock. (Shovelnose lobster.)

fish

Crab anyone? La Bamba makes a nice crab burro.

fish A closer view.

Another lion fish in a sponge.

Whoops - might have interrupted something.

More landscape, and a bashful fish.

Excellent terrain on Ron's Rock. (That's the name of the night dive site, near The Trench.)

Juno Ledge on Sunday afternoon, 90 FSW, with just a little bit of current. Float ball? Who needs a float ball?

Danny went in this tunnel, and went all the way in, and saw groupers that were THIS BIG.

A rare photo of the webmaster, taken by Danny.

fish Danny's video camera also takes still shots. Obviously, it does video, and I do have some video from the trip. All I have to do is figure out how to post it.
