Today's dive was on the wreck of the St. Anthony at 63 feet.
Several years back the State sank old tires in concrete footings to create an artificial reef. Some residents dubbed it the "Uniroyal Reef". A few years back they sank the St. Anthony in the same area.
The main attraction to the wreck is the many turtles that inhabit it. I must say they have become very used to scuba divers. I had no problem getting within 12" or less of this one. I did not use a strobe due to the closeness to its eyes, just the WAL and Manual White Balance.
