Upside Down
Can you see the snorkelers in the background watching the fish swimming around an upside down mangrove tree?
Current, Surge, and Fish!
We had an amazing dive and eco expedition in Panama in July. We enjoyed diving in the current and strong surge. There were large schools of fish and gorgeous reef teeming with life. Everyone had big smiles on their faces every day.
Coordinated Swimmers
It’s fun to slowly swim into a school of fish and watch the fish swim over and around you. It’s amazing how they are so coordinated and can change directions so quickly without bumping into each other (or an intruding diver).
Contrasting Moment
I like the contrast of motion and stillness captured in this picture. The two girls stand still in the middle of dancers, sharing a quiet moment in the middle of action.
Silvery Curtain
Diving the offshore oil rig is not for a novice diver. The rig is hundreds of feet deep, and it is standing in the middle of blue water. You must have advanced cold water diving skills to safely enjoy the unique beauty of the site. As you descend down you see that the structure is almost completely covered with sea anemone, scallops, and mussels. Quite often you see large schools of smelt and sardines leisurely swimming around and through the structure, looking like silvery curtains.
