White Rock

I went snorkeling again this weekend and continued my education in the world of underwater photography. I think it will be a lot easier scuba diving instead of always looking down at everything. Anyways, the visibility was much better this time and i even had the chance to explore the wonders of photoshop to enhance the pictures a little. I went camping the night before along a beach which was a great break since living and working with 10 people can be a little trying. Woke up the next morning and was able to go snorkeling before the winds kicked up and the tourists arrived at the beach. So with out further ado, underwater photos take 2...

Underwater adventure

Before the underwater adventure here are some petroglyphs carved onto rock faces by the ancient natives of Hawaii that i forgot to post a couple weeks ago when i took them. And a rainbow.





Another day off and another snorkeling trip. this time i wasn't so lucky as to tag along with a participant who rented a car. Instead i ended up walking 3miles each way plus a bus ride to reach a new snorkeling area. I was really worried when we first got there, because again it was an unusually windy day and so i thought the visibility was going to be awful. It wasn't great, a little to murky for good photos, but it was good enough to take pictures of turtles. So here is my first foray into the world of underwater photography. Like i said the visibility was pretty poor so the color is not great and the photos are kinda dark, but here are they best of them. Oh and i also have a few really good videos of the turtle, it's a juvenile green turtle, that was feeding along the reef.

Temporary removal of photos

so you may notice the whale photos have disappeared. i have taken them down pending the addition of the permit number to the photos. once i do that i'll post them again, no worries.
