Had a fantastic first time trip to God's Pocket in the way north reaches of Vancouver Island, British Columbia. The assortment of life was amazing, and especially impressed with sheer number of jellys, to include one of healthiest Lions Mane jellys I've seen. I was generally using my A7C/NA-A7C with the kit 28-60/WWL-1B/ CNC1, but used the Canon 8-15 fisheye on occasion.

You should plan on it.  It is truly one of the best dive destinations in the world.

Bring your warm undies! 😉 Water in early October was consistently 47F/ 8.4C, so over a day of diving, it gets chilly.

Beautiful pics! I'm eyeing that destination, but was wondering - with the cold water, was it ok with your gloves to burp the WWL-1? And is the choice of WWL-1 driven by flexibility of a zoom or was the water too full of particles to use a fisheye?

Wide angle seems definitely like a feature of the location, compared to other cold water areas i've dived in

I use the WWL-C and occasionally fisheye up there. I tend to shoot macro for the 3rd dive of the day when the light is fading. The visibility is what it is, sometimes excellent occasionally less so. You can control the particulate with careful lighting in an conditions.
