Leo Carrillo State Beach, CA

Dove With Ed

10 AM, 70 degree air temperature

3-11 foot waves, but pretty calm, sunny.

Visibility really sucked; it was explained to me that it was low tide.

I took pictures, Ed spear fished, got some Uni; used 2100 psi of air.

I saw a small shark below me when I was looking for Ed.

Leo Carrillo State Beach, CA

Dove with Ed

Ed and I are ready to dive.

Ed enters the surf zone.

Cloudy, large 10-12 foot waves.

I had a hard time getting out; burned 300 psi; entered water with 3100 psi.

I took my new underwater camera.

Visibility was bad, so only a few pictures came out.

Tired, but I made it out.

Visibility was bad – 10 feet at best around the first kelp bed.

The third kelp bed was OK with about 20 feet visibility.

There’s me submerging.

I think I’ve got the equalizing thing down now.

There’s Ed underwater.

Going down… Wow my $40 underwater camera takes such great pictures!

A self portrait.

Left the water with 900 psi.

Ed’s wife Maggie and the dogs were on shore.

Ed makes Uni as his wife and one of his “kids” watches on.
