Boxing day dives aboard the Maui Diamond II. I actually dove from the shore on each of the last 3 days, but conditions were not good so I was mainly playing around with my new Scubajet underwater scooter and did not get any pictures. Friday I dove Ulua Beach just before the swell really murked […]
Some of the pictures from my archives. Turtles: Eels: Frogfish: Scorpionfish: Other Fish: Harlequin Shrimp, Nudibranch, Monk Seal, etc.: Fiji:
Ok, all caught up. Going forward I will leave the date off the title as I intend to post the pictures the day I dive. For the record, these pictures were taken with the SeaLife Micro 3.0 camera with the Sola 2000 S/F hand light. On this dive I used the closeup lens (6″-24″).
Combining 2 days of diving into one. Same site, similar life spotted, not the greatest conditions. For the record, these pictures were taken with the SeaLife Micro 3.0 camera with the Sea Dragon 2500F light, perhaps supplemented with a Sola 2000 S/F hand light. On this dive I used either the super macro lens (4″-6″) […]
Another great day with the folks on the Maui Diamond. Even Rachel, the proprietor of Maui Dreams Dive Co., was on board. We did 2 drift dives on the back wall, first going from east of center towards Enenue, and the 2nd gong from west of center towards Reef’s end. 2nd dive: For the record, […]
I’ll be diving here a lot… parking is generally easy, entrance is easy, the dive bench by the shower post is a nice touch as well. Plus it is a nice reef that bottoms out at about 40 feet. Used to be a lot of turtles on the outer reef, but I have not seen […]
Back to Makena Landing, but with the SeaLife Micro 3.0 camera this time. It was a bit murky this day, so did not take a lot of pictures. But always enjoyable just being down there. For the record, these pictures were taken with the SeaLife Micro 3.0 camera with the Sea Dragon 2500F light, perhaps […]
This was my first time visiting the Carthaginian since it was moved from its above water spot in Lahaina Harbor, to its underwater graveyard 100 feet deep. I went on the Maui Diamond again, and once again the captain and crew were fantastic. I highly recommend this dive operation. We didn’t get much bottom time […]
This was my second time out on the Maui Diamond for a dusk/night dive. The last time was probably about 25 years ago. The captain and crew were fantastic. And we saw some fantastic critters at a site that I recall was called something with “skull” in it because of the likeness of a skull […]
I went back to Makena Landing for the first time in a long time. It used to be my favorite dive site, and it still is a great site, even though the the center section has really been destroyed by the charter boat industry (anchor drags on the reef and other poor stewardship practices). Had […]
I took a boat charter to Lana’i with Dive Maui in Lahaina for a 2 tank dive aboard their rigid hull inflatable dive boat. It’s always a fun ride in these boats and they get us across the channel in good time. I do want to say that I was very impressed with the staff […]
A 2 tank Molokini dive with Island Style Diving (formerly Mike Severns Diving). 1st Dive on Enenue side, 2nd dive on Reef’s End. For the record, these pictures were taken with the SeaLifeSportdiver housing for the iPhone 12 Pro Max with the Sea Dragon 2500F light.
This is my first dive with the Sealife Sportdiver housing for my iPhone 12 Pro Max. So this was a learning dive… tried to pick easy (read “stationary”) subjects. For the record, these pictures were taken with the SeaLife Sportdiver housing for the iPhone 12 Pro Max with the Sea Dragon 2500F light.
As I have been reinvigorated to dive, and have been diving at least weekly lately, and taking pictures on every dive, I feel the need to share my pictures, even if only to the very few family and friends who may visit this site. I will post even if I only photo the mundane, and […]
