New Member to EXCEED diving

Wednesday January 28, 2009

This past weekend I went with my 12 year old son, Giorgio, to do his NAUI certification dive in the Ocean. We did two shallow reef dives on the Pompano Balls. Both dives were in less than 25' of water. Visibility was good and there was little current.

I took this opportunity to try out my new underwater rig. I recently got a Canon G9 with Ikelite housing and strobe. This was the first dive with this setup so as you can see I need much more practice. The first photo-friendly creature we saw was this beautiful turtle:



I saw this Nurse Shark resting under a rock. As we approached he decided he did not want to have anything to do with us so he took off into the blue:
