Diving in Catalina: Day 2

ByRussell Laman

My second day in Catalina was even more eventful than the first. We ended up doing 3 dives, with one of our main goals being to find the Giant Sea Bass that we knew were hanging around the area. Giant Sea Bass can grow to 500 pounds, and so provide a spectacular subject for wide angle photography among the kelp forest. On all 3 dives we managed to find them and capture stunning images along the way.
