Great day at Molokini with Island Style Diving. The owners, Javier and Christina, were at the helm today and they did a great job. Christina led the group I was in and she is great and always finds the cool stuff. The Naso Tangs seemed to be in some mating battles:

Ulua Sunset
Ulua Beach
Ulua never disappoints. 2 Species I have not seen before today: Randall’s Puffer and Cloudy Goby. Both are said to be uncommon to be seen at scuba depths. So lucky me. 🙂 I also tried an experiment using only natural light, and setting white balance in camera. But I have to remind myself, as I […]
Makena Landing
It was very surgy and low visibility today, so not may pictures.
Ulua Sunset
Gotta love Ulua at sunset for macro
Another Ulua Afternoon Nudibranch hunt
Ulua Nudibranch Afternoon
After a morning dive in which I took no pictures as I let my dive buddy, Lynette, use an essential piece of my camera housing as she had forgot hers. So to make up for it, I did a 2nd dive solo and broke my single tank time record: 1 hour & 43 minutes on […]

85’s & Wailea Point
Out with Island Style Diving of their “Advanced” diving day, but it wasn’t really “advanced.” Fun anyway and the crew is always great.
Mala Ramp & Olowalu
I joined my friend Jenna and her twin 11 year old daughters and her father on Maui Pacific Divers and took photos for them. I am only going to post the marine life pictures here as I will leave it to Jenna to decide which portraits they want to make public. Anyway, it was a […]

Another trip that had been on my bucket list for a long time is now complete. It was absolutely amazing. I did 36 dives over 10 days with Fish & Fins Palau and the Palau Aggressor II. Both operations were fantastic in their respective ways. Aggressor offered its usual full service expedition, and the staff […]
360 Maui Reef Scenes
I just uploaded a 10 minute 360 video to YouTube called “360 Maui Reef Scenes.” Basically a collection of 360 footage I took over 5 dives with the new Insta360 X4 8K 360 camera. Best viewed with a VR headset while seated in a swivel chair. Otherwise you can scroll around the 360 view with […]
Last Maui Dive before Palau!
At Ulua. Dive 1 went out to the St Anthony but only took 360 video (to be edited), dive 2 went out to Anthias Rock. Tomorrow is packing day, and Thursday it’s Honolulu > Guam > Palau. I board the Palau Aggressor on June 9th and return on the 16th. Before and after I will […]
Makena Landing again. Hoping to find the weight pocket I lost last dive. 🙂
