Default photo journal of Easter dive!

I am going to try to get this right.
.
i am posting these from my phone, so cross your fingers!
.
some pixs may be very small or fuzzy, others too big...we'll see!
.
but here is my journey to, above, down, and back up at a dive site called "Purgatory" in Lake Mead, Easter Sunday.

(top side photos: some by me, some by others.
all underwater photos get credited to Mr. Dennis Kirwin)

-----
first pic is on the way to the lake....looks like it may be a big dive! lol!

Vegas,

Great shots. Do you mind if I show them to my new divers? I want to show them what a diver can do if they put there mind to it to learn.
