Deep Cavern Course (Pt II)

Monday, June 9th, 2008

This Queen’s Birthday Weekend I headed up to Mt. Gambier to finish off my last required dive for my CDAA Deep Cavern certification, which I completed in Little Blue on Friday morning. On Saturday Jake and Ellen took me on a guided tour of Piccaninnie Ponds, which was a treat after fudging around in the 1m visibility of Little Blue. Jake and I dropped into Ewen’s Ponds after that, but unfortunately on the tail end of about 20 other divers, so the water was a little stirred up.

My weekend finished on Monday morning at Kilsby’s, with this trip’s second awesome dive at that hole in the middle of a sheep paddock. I tagged my camera along for a couple of the dives, but my photos just don’t do the dives justice. Definately more practice required at this sort of photography. And maybe another strobe wouldn’t hurt either!
