Quadra Island Dive Trip, November 2005

I took these photographs in November 2005 on a dive trip to Quadra Island B.C. on Vancouver Island (across from Campbell River).

My hosts for the trip were Mike and Darlene Richmond of DynaMike Dive Charters, Quadra Island B.C. I was joining a group of four divers from the Vancouver area.

The photos were taken by a Sealife DC200 digital underwater camera, without external strobe (just using the internal flash).
