sunrise this afternoon.

Post by cardiver »

Keith and I hit Sunrise and Fox Island (west wall) this afternoon. We had a fair amount of current at Sunrise during the entire dive but we had a great time, regardless.

I am assuming that you might have dropped it when putting things away and not noticed. I hope you find it but I figure someone found it and keep an eye on craigslist.

What Brand and model was it? I dont pay that close attention when we dive together. :rawlings:

Yes, it was two great dives, a little bit of a marathon at Sunrise, fighting current for most of the dive, but it was still fun.
Fox Island ended as a night dive, so that adds to the frustration of Ron's lost computer #-o . Is there any one on this board that lives near Fox Island? I sure hope you find it, Ron. Thanks for the dives cardiver!
Oh, and we had some great burgers at the Flaming Onion, in Gig Harbor. :supz:
Okay, I mean "Blazin Onion"

I do.... I found out that Sony Memory Sticks are a PITA when it comes to downloading video. Neither Windows or Picasa will download the video. All of the pics download just fine, but the only place the video will download is into Sony's software and I cant figure out how to get it from there to Vimeo......H2O, any suggestions???????

I suggest useing the CD that came with the Camera ... Or get a copy of Vegas video, adobe PRemire, or Magix.. These are all good movie programs.. Magix was 89.00 at Best Buy .. I lost my compass last week if that helps with the Loss of your Puter

Ron:
Are these pictures still without a strobe on your new WX1? Could you point me to the Sea & Sea housing you use, I couldn't find the right one on their website.
