Nice shots Eric! Looks like you found a Puget sound crab (or 2). Is that the same camera setup you dove with at redondo?

Hi
Yes, same setup: Nikon d70 with Ikelite housing and dual strobes.

There were quite a few puget sound king crabs around. I was more surprised by lack of candy stripe shrimp -- we only found one despite lots of snakelock anemones.

I got to try some new-to-me sites on this trip, including Davidson Rock! Awesome site!

Looks like you had a good trip!
Great pictures, Eric =D> =D> =D>
It has been a long time since I've gone diving up there, thanks for keeping up my addiction's, motivation, to get back there soon! :burntchef: :goodpost:
:idea:
Hey? Think of how much money I would have saved, if I never actually got Scuba certified and just logged all my dives from this board's reports?
What an impressive log book, I would have then?
:pirate: :pirate: :pirate:

Finally, A dive log, almost as good as Val's!!!


Looking forward to next Thursday's dive...
Keith.

Hi
We did 6 dives total. Strawberry Island, north side of Shaw, Davidson Rock, and Long island (backside) were the general areas.
