Body found off Waikiki

It is believed to be photographer Sergio Goes

Associated Press 
A U.S. Coast Guard crew off Waikiki found the body of a diver believed to be award-winning island photographer Sergio Goes who had been missing for almost a day.The patrol boat Galveston Island recovered the body before noon today. It was on the last leg of a six-hour search when a lookout on the bridge spotted the body.      

The missing man had been identified as Goes by friends yesterday. He was taking underwater photos when he disappeared free-diving off Waikiki, friends told the Star-Bulletin.

The Hawaii chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists last night awarded Goes its top photo essay prize at its annual awards ceremony. The judges felt the pictures he took for a Honolulu Magazine photo essay showed dedication of time and an appreciation for the island lifestyle and its customs and traditions.
