Northwest Dive Club

Ummmm, Pogi and I brought tarps to Redondo last week. Plus, we are kind of wet anyway :-) I brought the canopy but used the pay machine shack instead. :-) Shhhh, trying to bust Jim and Keith's chops. Jim, until you dive Bucknaked style, I don't want to hear about getting wet. :) Seriously, hope to ...

Very cool, I am digging RATM music. BTW - Where is Jupiter in relation to Juno Ledge. I dove there a few years ago.

Lumpia??? Dude, I'm in. My first choice is redondo and three tree is my 2nd. But I am pretty flexible. I will have my tanks filled too

Congrats Bob, nice meeting you. Congrats to Penders to for 2nd in Cold Water Macro. Great shots everyone!

I will be there Sunday and I feel like I should wear a name tag that says "Scubie Doo". I am sure I will see alot of NWDC members but you won't have your screen names and avatars floating above your heads :( Hey Jesse, I dove the BC yesterday and it worked nice and smooth for me as far as...

Good eye LCF. That is an awesome shot. Getting that in flight, way cool.

Thanks Zen Diver!

Eric, looks like you got that camera figured out. You were right, lots of stubbies! I like the shot with the tentacles in focus and the body put of focus, cool stuff. And great diving with you again!

Agree with cardiver. However, I would shoot with one for 5-10 dives, just to get the hang of the strobes and lighting. Add the second when you start getting some nice results with one. And as Ron said, YES on the diffusers. I would hit up Penders for advice on fiber optics and strobe firing. He is g...

Met up with Mike (MPenders), Benoit, Jeff (Pogiguy5), and Eric (Yelloweye) last night at Redondo. The first dive we headed down the line towards the carousel boat, took a left to the bottle field, and then made our way to the boat ramp. Lots of really cool critters poking around. When we got to 15 f...

PM Sent Mr. Linedog.

Cool. Have fun diving with Keith. Glad you found someone to stay south. I dove Les Davis my last couple outs and haven't hit redondo for a while. Catch you on the next one.

Jim, just fight the traffic and hit redondo with us We plan on meeting at 5.

Hi! Mind if I join you guys? For me it would likely be the second dive only. What's on the south side of the boat ramp, I don't know that site super well. For a critter finder like you, the south side offers tons of cool things. I have seen a lot of stubbies, lumpies, snailfish, octos, and even a j...

Janna, I agree. Local photos would be awesome. When you look at tropical photos pay attention to the macro photos, because shooting macro here and tropical is pretty much the same (technique wise). The wide angle tropical photos can pretty much be ignored, since those opportunities are almost never ...

Janna, In the past, I have done a google search for particular camera I was interested in. For example, "Canon S100 underwater photos". You will get a lot of tropical photos. But many times the photographer will post the housing, settings, and lighting used. On occasion I have even emailed...

I'm in! I'd like to hit the south side of the boat ramp if you are up for that???

+1 for Redondo. I'd like to hit the South side of the boat ramp while we still can :-)

Good shooting guys. However, what you got is not only the eggs, but also the adult.
When they hatch, they are just tiny larvae, they don't look like mom/pop

Cool, proud parents are cool too:) thanks Jan!

Hey where's the stubby, octo, and wolfies???

I thought I saw a hatched one????

Jan,

I love it!!!! Thanks for the information Jan, we can stop scratching our heads.

Here are a few shots. I had my +13 macro lens on so the shooting was a little challenging.

Nice shots Ron. Great use of B&W on the tube worm.

Dive report?!

Ron posted one called "Les...." I don't want to high jack this thread.

BTW- that viz is unbelievable. Could you imagine the cool UW pictures one could take there?

Phooey! Not as good as Les Davis tonight!
