Color under Gray Skies in Fiji

Here are a few from a rainy trip to Beqa Lagoon, Fiji last week. It's been almost 3 months since I picked up a camera. We did a shark feeding trip that was pretty cool. The first dive was at 90 feet and the second at 60 feet. The shark pics below were taken at 90 feet. We had overcast skies everyday, but despite that, I was surprised at the blues that I was still able to get by shooting upwards.

Great set of pics......you would never know it was overcast. Also can't get over the amount of fish life.

Nice shots.

I wonder if you did the same shark dive location we did? We were there the 5th-14th at Beqa Lagoon resort.

It was pure chaos during the shark dives. The viz was a mess. We got to see a 12 foot Tiger on the first dive and some big Lemon's on the second. The viz was a little better on the second dive.

Aside from the shark dive, how was the current otherwise? We only had one dive that I considered "bad" because of the current. It was at Seven sisters and we had to huddle on the backside of one pinnacle. We never made it near any of the others. The overall viz was down in the area we were told. All the rain or maybe the recent Typhoon?

good shots Larry, the corals in Beqa too?

Mike - it's Will here. the coral shots are from the Beqa area. Both of those shots were done during 15' safety stop. I was impressed with the shallow reefs but anything in the 40-60 feet range looked really beat up.
