En route to Port Hardy

Gosh, I wanna go!! You guys are driving me nuts with this.. It's been 7 years since I've been to Port Hardy.

Guess I will have to plan a trip.. It's only a drive for me, after all...

P.S. Todd and John, love the warbonnet and the hooded nudi. Two of my favorite subjects...

"The photo is nothing special - bloody full frame cameras not allowing me to get enough magnification! Todd and Rand's photos are much nicer!"

So which full frame camera have you switched to Alex, and are you using it underwater?

Colin

This was close. Still wished we could have got a better angle on this bear.

Lion lol

No doubt, the best Port Hardy trip to date for me. We saw all the usual suspects and a few unusual ones as well. Always fun to dive with my Canadian friend John. Thanks Todd for putting such a great trip together. Getting to dive and talk with Alex was a real treat and very educational.

Alex let me borrow a 150mm lens for a couple of dives. Really liked how it performed and I'll be adding it to my arsenal just as soon as I can.

Mosshead Warbonett

The rest of the week, I shot the 60mm...

Grunt Sculpin

My main goal for this trip was to get a shot of a shrimp on one of the orange Seapens. The only one I'd found several years before escaped me because my strobes were dead. Finally got it (and left room for improvement...lol):

Rand

Those are great. What kind of dive operations are up there?

Wow some amazing critters topside and UW, thanks for sharing guys.

Cheers,

Jim.

The walls are just packed with life. Funny how we all still seemed to focus in on Warbonnets while presented with so many options to shoot.

Cheers

Todd
