Cool.

I’m back from Hawaii. I have some pics and videos that I will post somewhere, when I get a chance. Not as many as I would have liked, due to a rented underwater camera malfunctioning and my having left one of my cameras at the airport in Hawaii.

Submitted for your amusement - a snippet from my vacation:


10/30 - 6:45 PM - We dive down and sit on the bottom at 35'. I start the camera and record until it is full. Silly me! I see the manta rays and the snorkelers on the surface. After the camera is full, everything starts to happen. The mantas start to get much closer, 8-10 goat fish begin to feed off of my light and the eel appears. I am watching a manta swoop over my head and when it passes, I look at my light and there is an undulated moray eel feeding off of my light! I watch it for a minute or so and then, not knowing what the moray might do, I press the light against my thigh. The eel swims down toward my thigh and then away and I shine my light on it after it has passed. The eel swims about 10 feet away and rests on a rock. Then some moron prods it with his dive light and it swims back towards me! The eel swims into a crevice between two rocks about 18" below where I am kneeling. The moron keeps poking it and it swims straight up at me. Now, I can't see it because the moron has his dive light pointing at my face! The light dims a little, so I look down and the eel is resting it's head on his dive light and it's head is less than a foot from my crotch and it is looking at me! I swear to myself that if I get bit, I am going to bonk the moron on the head with my dive light. Later I find out that the moron is a crew member on my dive boat and that the eel, 'Frank', is friendly, whatever that means regarding a creature described as "reported to be an aggressive species and prone to bite".

I can't see the photos at work.

The last post read like a really weird romance novel.

Where do you work, communist china? The photos are SFE and I can't imagine why anyone would block pogoplug. The eel actually swam up and hovered in front of my face before swimming away after the moron moved his dive light away from me. It was literally 5 inches from my mask. I forgot to add that part to my story. Later, I am told that it swam up someone's back and hid between his back and his tanks (eels like to hide) resting it's head on his shoulder, but I did not see that.
