Howdy Folks
As reported in another thread, SJ and I took a quick last-minute trip to God's Pocket, in order to hit it before Bill and Annie retire.
We dove with a great group of divers from Ocean Pro Diving, from up in Whiterock. Visibility was fantastic, marine life was great, and the dive buddies were super fun as well! Here are some of the snaps from the trip. Also seen were bald eagles, sea otters, seals, sea lions, rhinoceros auklets, black turnstones and other cool sea birds. What a great trip!
Let's hope they keep this place running!

So glad you guys got to go there and do your 500th dive there, SJ!!! These pics are on fire!! The colors are so vibrant, and I especially like how many different colored anemones you both both captured in photos - macro and wide angle. Awesome!

Spectacular photos guys! I really like the RIL shot with the diver in the backround and also the hydroids with the nudi. Yelloweye, your wide angle shots are easily as good as anything in publication. Both of you keep up the excellent work!!!
