Remarks

We wanted to hit the ledge that the shark was hiding under. We saw the white tipped shark there last dive, and wanted to see it again.

The first main attraction was two white tipped sharks. These were swimming under a ledge. The ledge was real shallow, providing a good glimpse at the sharks. Unfortunately, it was too small to get the housing in comfortably, and I definately could not get my lights to reach down on the sharks. The outermost shark swam around a little, the inner most shark just sat there. The video came is nothing special. The lighting wasn't great and the camera lens is reflecting off the housing lens.

Next was a colorful thing that I don't know what it was. I like this footage.

Coral with fish inside it. Tried to get the fish inside the coral, but wsn't really successful.

Shot of coral with sky in background.

Two butterfly fish hiding under the coral.

Puffer that looks like a seal.

Top of the coral, looking into sky. Lots of fish. Blue background is nice.

Mark and pufferfish.

More fish and coral. Trumpet fish and unicorn fish is distance. Blue background is real nice.

Diver at safety stop playing around.
