Details: A really nice and clean dive. Great vis and some nice lighting effects through the water. After taking some photos under the pier i swam around the back of the breakwater, but there really wasn’t much there too see. My strobes started misbehaving on this dive and i think one of my ss200’s has now died.

Dive Report: I took advantage of the nice vis and did some wide angled shots. Here’s a natural light shot:
