ThThTh 4/23 report
Hi
We went diving last night at Redondo last night. Gdog, Scubie, ScubaJess and He who shall not be mentioned. Viz was absolutely craptastic, so much that all shots had a green cast to them due to the thick plankton. I had to color correct this guy even though my strobes were right next to him The parasites on him look like baby flounders but of course are not!
Fun Diving!

Miso soup....very apt description! But still a nice dive with good food beer and company afterwards. Good to have the Nameless One dive with us as well!

Re: ThThTh 4/23 report
Great time with the crew and the 'Nameless One'. It was definitely pea soup out there, so the +5 diopter really helped. I had a surprisingly decent shooting night. Even though I had to throw away a ton of junked up photos. Stubbies were everywhere, including right in gDog's grill
Love the colors on this one. It was very active, swimming up and down the water column. It was a PITA getting good light while minimizing backscatter. The +5 helped me get really close to avoid getting a bunch of "soup" in the shot.
I really like the heart shaped eye on this one.
Same squid, different angle.
This might be my favorite of the night.
This squid finally settled back down after swimming around.
This is for Yelloweye. He asked if I was going to get a wolf eel eyeball, here you go :-)
At the end of the dive, we found two baby sail fin sculpin. As I shot this one I thought "These cool little critters rival any Lionfish in terms of awesomeness."
YE, this is from Les Davis last year. But I agree, the parasites look like baby flounders.
Great diving with you all in the crappy viz.
