Winter 2011-2012 Trip 2012-02-03

Despite the rather rolly conditions I’ll stay here another day and try out the dive camera with flash while scuba diving. I headed back to the same location and spent 70 minutes underwater, mostly between 10-20 feet, photographing and practicing using the camera. While the water was once again a bit cloudy due to the swell, a couple of the pictures did turn out but when I got back to the boat I realized that I was a bit cold and might opt for purchasing a wet suit after all for future long dives.
Although it took a while to get it up and running, the first trial run of Bauer Junior II compressor was successful and I quickly filled my 2/3 empty tank back up over 3000psi and am ready for the next session.

Original hosting provider breaks my old website

My old hosting company, who will remain unnamed although their name starts with “go” and the end rhymes with “baddy”, changed their software with little notice and the original SV-ZANSHIN.COM site stopped working overnight.

Every. Single. Page.

So I’ve transitioned to another provider. These original pages have been migrated, but all the formatting and other features are gone and the will still contain numerous display issues and formatting anomalies.

The manual effort of conversion is too much and not worth the effort involved. Over 1000 blog diary pages like this one are going to remain in this condition. The pictures are full-scale, but won’t expand when clicked. But you can can copy them to view them in their original splendour.
