    Dive Report 8/28 Pebble Beach & Back Beach

    Well I finally went diving!!!!!

    I had to take advantage of a day off and wound up doing some solo dives just to get back in the water. Nothing really spectacular to say the least as I kept it on the easy side. Perfect day though with nice sunny skies and flat seas.

    Dive#1 - Pebble Beach - Max depth 23fsw - temp 61F - 56min. Vis 15-20'

    Dive#2 - Back Beach - Max depth 19fsw (it was low tide lol) - temp 63F - 53min. Vis 15-20'.

    Got some pics of the usual suspects. Also saw some nice stripers that would not stop and pose for a pic. Of course, after diving I had a real appetite and headed on up to Woodmans, you know, they invented the fried clam. Yum!

    That was years ago! You aren't still holding a grudge for me being a party pooper are you?

    BTW, dried flounder make nice ping pong paddles.

    We all know you don't dive anymore so I say it's just stock photography.

    But whoever took those did a good job.

    Hi. I am fairly new to photography and also dive in the waters up here. How do you get your pictures so clear-do you use a filter and if so, what kind? I always have a greenish tinge to my pictures. Sorry for the stupid question, I am a total neophyte with the pictures taking, but absolutely love it! Thanks!

    Glad to see you got in the water John, If I dint have a condo kitchen job in the rough, I would have bailed out to come with. Maybe in a week or so, when I have this job buttoned up, we can do some sort of dive someplace.

    Honestly I used the auto-enhance feature on ArcSoft Photostudio. I don't even know where I got that program. Nothing fancy. Those pics were green as anything before editing!

    I've used photoshop before and that seems to be what the majority uses for editing photos. It's actually been so long I don't remember what setting I have programmed in my camera, but I don't use the 'auto' (P) mode. I programmed it a while back based on advise in the photography section of SB. Check it out, there is a ton of info there!

    Oh, no filter used. You can add those shades with photoshop if necessary.
