Social distancing, quarantine, and isolation has forced me to clear out my DVR, clean my crib and organize some of my digital files.
Going through a lot of digital files has brought back a lot of great memories from a few spectacular dives.
The clip above is from my first trip to La Paz, Mexico. My dive buddies and I traveled there to specifically dive with Sea Lions. The Youtube clip above contain two moments; The first was shot by my friend Paul. I thought one of my dive buddies was toying with me during the dive but it was actually a young Sea Lion. The second shot was filmed by me. I was able capture another young Sea Lion catching a ride on one of my dive buddies. She had no clue there was a Sea Lion holding on to her tank until the end.
Turtles
Sea Turtles are underrated in my opinion. Scientist estimate that Sea Turtles have been on Earth for over 220 million years. This means they have shared the planet with dinosaurs and survived climate change that eventually killed the dinosaurs. Below are two cool moments I was able to capture in Indonesia and Ecuador.
Sharks
Here are a few cool encounters with sharks along two different reef systems in Belize and Ecuador.
Unique Creatures
One of the reasons I love scuba diving is that you have the chance to see uncommon creatures underwater and unique behaviors.
I shot these images over several years using the following equipment: Gopro Hero 4 Silver, Gopro Hero 6 Black, Gopro Hero 8 Black, Sealife DC1400 and Sealife DC2000. My current underwater camera set up can be found here.
