firs trip in (very) cold water!

Hi,

I went to the north of Vancouver Island region last month... water was cold but I really enjoyed diving there

A few photos below... some others on my website in the "topic of the month" section !

I'd appreciate comments and, as well, criticism...

Cheers

Nice stuff, Claude. What lens did you use for the wolfish?

thanks Alex...

For the wolfish... I took the Sigma Fish-Eye 15mm lens.

Nice shots. Looks like you had great visibility! Ain't Port Hardy great??

Cheers,

Very cool critters; but it just looks cold...brrrrr.

What type of fish is #6?

I love Port Hardy diving

# 6 looks like a Ratfish

Glad you got to see one of my favourites in the Decorated Warbonnet

Ain't Port Hardy great??

really great : think to go back in spring 2008 !

What type of fish is #6?

it's a Ratfish also know as a chimaera - generally you find that fish in very deep water... we had chance to see it in shallow water !

Was it at DIllon Rock?

They seem to always be there in 60 feet of water.

Was it at DIllon Rock?

We saw some there... but most of them were in 15 feet in a bay at Hurst Island (God's Pocket Resort)

Impressive images.

Very strange to a tropical diver like me.

Ahh God's Pocket. You got to visit with Lewis the lab then.

You got to visit with Lewis the lab then.
