August 13, 2004 - Tanavula Point, Florida Islands (Dive 1)

Max Depth: 86'
Dive Time: 63 min, 08:47
Temperature: 80 °F
Nitrox PO2: 32%
Camera: Canon 1Ds, 100mm USM Macro, 2 x Ikelite DS-125

I forgot to turn the rear dial of the camera on, so I was stuck at f8 for the entire dive (doh!). Was able to get close to a long-nose hawkfish, which was nice. Coral here in the Solomons is like it is in Indonesia: very lush, with large, healthy specimens. I like this place. :)
