Today I just wanted to get wet and spend as much time underwater on one dive as I could. And I got my SAC (Surface air consumption) down to .43 cu. ft./min.
So my plan was just to cruise with the scooter, try to make it to the St. Anthony again, don’t worry about pictures, but instead mount the camera to the scooter and shoot some video. Conditions were not very good; I found the tires but did not find the wreck. So I did not bother even pulling the camera out until I got back to the Mokapu reef, where I think I found the antler coral I used to love to photograph 17 years ago, and if so, it has grown! So I had to at least take a picture of that… but I did not take any external lenses, nor lights, and with not great conditions, the picture is shit. You can still see the size difference. That’s what 17 years of Antler Coral growth looks like.
And then I remembered, “Oh yeah, I wanted to mount the camera to the scooter and shoot video.” So I did. Here’s the result:
Today, to keep it simple, I just took the SeaLife Micro 3.0 camera, no extra lenses, no light.
