Deep-Dive

Deep-Dive

Good evening from banana land!  Was looking thru old pictures today and found this one from a few weeks ago when Marco and I went on a deep dive in front of Pier Baai.  I think we dropped down to 120 feet where I found this sponge sitting all by itself.  We both noticed this area was pretty much just plate corals and rock, not a whole lot of sponge clusters to be found.  If you were to continue at this depth for ten minutes heading east you would run right into the Curacao Car Pile, named after all the car parts and junk dumped there many years ago. 
 
I don’t have much for you all this evening it’s just a nice quiet Sunday.  Many thanks for all the nice compliments on the hummingbird pictures glad you all liked them.  Sunny regards, Barry
