SCUBA diving in the ocean is my “religious experience.” Floating weightless, free to move in three dimensions and constantly surrounded by life! In my thousand plus hours under the ocean, I’ve encountered creatures and scenes of a beauty that beat any I’ve found on land. In a world where you can mingle, unafraid, with the largest of predators and where every surface is covered with colorful, stunning and often surreal forms of life, I’m always left slack-jawed with amazement that I’m allowed in this seeming realm of the Gods.
