Kelly scuba diving in Whaler's Cove
Point Lobos State Natural Reserve
August 1993

Photo made using a Kodak single-use color negative camera in a simple, waterproof housing.

Today, waterproof digital cameras are available at modest prices, but in the 1990s high-quality waterproof cameras and/or housings were expensive.

In retrospect, I'm oddly thankful that all we had was the waterproof housing for the "disposable" cameras. As a result, we spent more time *experiencing* our dives, rather than fussing with a camera.
