Basking sharks in Cornwall

7 posts
  1. Went out with some Wetpixelers TJSnapper, Saeed Rashid and Fergus Kennedy for some basking action. Full morning, no baskers, then we saw one breech! Then they all seemed to appear! Went out with Charles Hood. All taken with Canon 7D in Nauticam housing.

  4. A great trip it was indeed, and not forgetting the sighting of a sunfish- Thanks to Alex for organising it and Charles Hood for finding the big fish. Here are a few of my shots- also with a Canon 7D housed in Nauticam and a Tok 10-17:

  5. Some nice shots there Alex. My MK2 housing should be here in a couple of weeks so hopefully I will be able to get out and see these beasts myself. That shot with the 2 baskers is very nice. I see TJ's photo on face book. Looks like you all had a productive time.
