No "apparently" to it. I was on the boat as well and we dove Socorro Island on Tuesday, March 16, as well as March 18 & 19. While I agree with Hermit Crab's comment that the vis was NSG and the big critters lacking in profusion, I had my camera out all week and was quite happy with what I got. But you gotta remmber not to always be looking up anbove you. There's plenty of smaller stuff to shoot if you just look for it. One person commented mid-week while looking at some of my images, "Where'd he find all that stuff?" Of course, someone esle commented at the end of the week after I gave a slide show, "It's Macro Socorro." :-) - Ken
