Greetings,

I just came across this article in the NY Times online edition and thought some of you might be interested.

The art & science of blackwater diving and photography (includes some amazing images):

Very cool stuff. I know blackwater is a highlight for many going to kona. Several of us have been wanting to do blackwater in the puget sound. I think now is the time of year to do it. Lots of larva in the water. I saw a sea angel and newborn fish at Keystone the weekend before last and I saw crabs hatching at Redondo this last weekend.
