There is Lots of Color!

Many people seem surprised when we show them scenes like this from local California dives. They think California’s reefs are drab and lacks color. Nothing could be further from the truth! As you can see from this image, the rocky reefs of California is quite colorful and full of life.

Oh, What a Big Bird... Wait What?

So I was taking pictures of the black coral at 100 ft….then suddenly three divers swam into my frame. For a moment I thought, “Wow, those are some big birds…” lol

This is What We Go There to See

Clear blue water, large sea fan, colorful sponges, tunicates, sea anemone, and multitudes of reef fish. This is what we go to the Coral Triangle to see.

Freedom!!

Freeeeeeeee!!! So much fun to race across the vast ocean with endless horzion

Show the Love!

Anyone know what this bird is? It looked like an immature seabird of some kind, but I have no idea what. We were at Gunung api, a small volcanic island in the middle of the Banda Sea, when this little bird flew onto the deck of our boat. Do you see the tattoo on the hand of one of our divers? This bird knew where to find the love!
