Underwater photography is fun yet challenging, especially off the coast of California. Visibility is generally murky, between five and sixty-five feet, and the water is often clouded by plankton. It's those very conditions that encourages such a profuse variety of wildlife. I took the following photos at various dive sites in California, and a few sites in Key Largo, Florida.
