Poor Visibility

We win a raffle, a dive trip for two on a small boat. My son Alex and I go. It is a rough day and we think we are going to be fine under water but the swells are strong and it is a struggle to stay in balance.

We are seasick. Familiar shapes under water are unrecognizable and an alien world, there are particles floating and obscuring the sight, the visibility is only a few  feet .

Coral heads turn into monsters, bottomless canyons hold secrets.

The beauty lies in the unknown, the abstract of the under water reality.
