Had the dive of our lives on the Fin Barge Saturday. The Sarasota Herald published some of the video.

That was an awesome dive, I still have a smile on my face.
I was suprised to see it made the paper. The article said I touched it, that was a slight understatement. Did they interview you?

I gave Mote some data and links to my video. The guy in charge of the research was out of office, and I received an out of office reply. 12 minutes later he replied and wanted any information I could give him.

For anyone who is interested, I have additional footage at:

Great day of diving for sure.
 
very nice
 
Awesome
 
I just watched the additional footage video. I'm almost weepy. I would think an experience like that is bound to change you forever. To be face to face with such raw nature ... as I said regarding my volunteer experience with the pilot whales in KL (which is so tame compared to this): words are superfluous.
 
Couple awesome shark vids as of late. Guy spearing off Sebastian had a G. White come check him out (and has video of it).

Awesome vid and envy you man.
 
very cool.
