Northwest Dive Club

Alki junkyard was an impressive 40 ft viz on Saturday August 11th!

Beautiful photo! These jellyfish are so cool and to have 3 divers in it too - nice!

Wow! Awesome!!

Kapow!! Amazing photos!! So impressed with how you guys capture the ocean’s beauty every time. The colors at DP more vibrant than ever, and viz and number of fish at Keystone’s piling were phenomenal! Congrats Derek!

Maria, I was going to get there early and could have gotten the mask but I’m not going to make it early after all. Sorry.

I can bring extra lights.

I’m in. And might be there early for a dive at 4 pm too

I flew to Flower Gardens in Houston with my pony bottle and it wasn’t a problem. Valve disconnected and the 3rd TSA person knew what was going on and I got through easily (first two TSA people were new I think). My lesson learned was - connect the valve back before you get to the dive operator! When...

Beautiful photos! Really like the light coming down through the water column! And the moss head warbonnet! Such a great site!

Won’t be there but will be back next week! Have fun guys and stay cool!!!

Sola lights will be on sale at divers fair weekend of July 27-29th at underwater sports in Seattle (not advocating any store - just FYI place to find them cheaper).

I’m out this week and next - out of town.

Will send pm for worthington hp-80.

What a great trip report! Sounds like an amazing time. Looked at your pics on smugmug and they’re all beautiful - especially like the hooded nudis and some free floating! Wow!!

Beautiful pics from you both! The colors at DP are spectacular! And, Especially like the crab and red eyed Medusa pics. Good times!!

We scuba divers always wear special underwear when we dive! Undergarment, that is - yeah for toasty warm weezles!

Are you back from Indonesia, dlh? Can’t wait to hear all the details.

Spyder K01 makes a 8 and 5 mm hood in various sizes. Can order online and they have sizing chart. 8 mm here is the best I’ve found! Highly recommended, worth it but a bit pricey

Thanks for the super thorough descriptions and pictures! The first part makes me glad and thankful we get to dive around here all the time. But the pictures of the ‘decorated war bonnet cousin’ is really cool! Glad you had a ‘layover’ there and got to see family too.

Thanks for clarifying where the harlequin shrimp were!!

I’ll be out of town for the club dive. Hope I can make the next one!! Glad to hear your drysuit is back, jondiver, but 3 months is a really long time!!! I just sent mine back to Bare 3 weeks ago and they told me it would take 6 weeks. Using my old usia suit right now. Have a great time at the club d...

Great pictures - especially like the frog fish and mantas!! Glad to hear jacks was good - I thought they were good when I was there few years ago too.

Do tell — what dive site did you see the harlequin shrimp at?? Gdog and I would really like to know ?!?!

Beautiful pictures!!! The rockfish were very curious! The viz was good and more fish there than other times - very glad to see them all!!

Absolute WOW!!!!
I like 1, 4, and 6 best. 1 because if kelp contrast behind it, 4 because it’s reaching out with tentacle, and 6 because reaching up with tentacle. Did I say, wow!

I’m so impressed with the pics you both got! Beautiful colors, beautiful life, just ..... beautiful!!! The wolf eel in den with reef above is really amazing! So is the jellyfish and the octo. Wow! Had such a fabulous time!!!! Thank you SCM for setting it all up!! What a wonderful weekend!!

Like the b roll footage. Cloud sponges are beautiful!
