Remarks

We went out in seatch of cuttlefish and anemonies. Most of the dive was unsucessful. We made the most of it by taking pics and video of what was there, but it wasn't what we were looking for.

Near the end of the dive I was watching Mike Ball take some pic (don't know what he was shooting, but it probably came out nice). As I was hovering there I looked over to a patch of coral and saw two cuddlefish hovering. As I swam over I got Mark's attention and we spent the rest of the dive harassing the cuttlefish. One of the fish was skittish, and would not let us get near it, but the other wanted to be a movie star and let us work it over. I got some decent footage of the fish, but then it was time to leave.

Swimming back to the boat I discovered that my comoputer alarms work. When I got to 500psi it beeped and the preasure display started to blink. It beeped a few more times, and continued blinking until I got out of the water.

The weather this morning was not as good as it had been the past few days. It rained right before the dive briefing and the seas were not a slate of glass. But it's all good, so no worried mate.
